C,DEG etc OTHER INFECTIONS (yellow fever virus CMV, HSV, rubella virus, and enteroviruses CHEMICALS ALCOHOL ACETAMINOPHEN
HEPATITIS Hepatitis---“INFLAMMATION OF THE LIVER” resulting in a clinical illness characterized by fever, gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, and jaundice. CAUSED BY: • VIRUSES - HEPATITIS A, B, C, D, E, G etc. • OTHER INFECTIONS (yellow fever virus, CMV,HSV, rubella virus, and enteroviruses ) • CHEMICALS – ALCOHOL – ACETAMINOPHEN
Definitions for Hepatitis Acute: Acute hepatitis is where the disease develops quickly, has symptoms and lasts less than 6 months short term and/or severe Chronic: Lingering or lasting where the symptoms and disease last longer than 6 months May or may not be severe Fulminant: Developing quickly and lasting a short time, high mortality rate Hepatocellular carcinoma: closely associated with hepatitis B and at least in some regions of the world with hepatitis C virus
Definitions for Hepatitis • Acute: Acute hepatitis is where the disease develops quickly, has symptoms and lasts less than 6 months. Short term and/or severe. • Chronic: Lingering or lasting where the symptoms and disease last longer than 6 months. May or may not be severe • Fulminant: Developing quickly and lasting a short time, high mortality rate. • Hepatocellular carcinoma:closely associated with hepatitis B, and at least in some regions of the world with hepatitis C virus
Viral hepatitis needs detail discussion as aIt is responsible for more than 90% cases of both acute and chronic hepatitis aVery important from public health point of view-as preventable u Types a and E cause only acute hepatitis and spread by feaco-oral route Types B, C, D and G cause both acute chronic hepatitis and are transmitted by blood and blood products and body fluids
