Answer 1

Answer:

Type of microorganism: Haemophilus influenzae is a pathogenic microorganism cause respiratory tract infection including pneumonia, eye and bloodstream infection and meningitis.

Gram reaction, shape and arrangement: Haemophilus influenzae is a Gram negative, small, non motile, coccobacillary, facultative anaerobic pathogenic bacteria

Virulence factors: Presence of type-b polysaccharide (of six different poly saccharides a to f) capsule on cell surface is known major virulence factor

How the organism evade the immune system: Presence of polysaccharide capsule around the organism help the organism to evade the immune system by inhibiting the components of complement system and also inhibiting the antibody synthesis. So at both innate and adaptive protection of host is compromised.

Diseases your organism can cause: Respiratory tract infection including pneumonia, eye and bloodstream infection and meningitis.

How your organism can spread to others: Droplet infection and discharge from the upper respiratory tract during the infectious period.

How a patient might present with your organism: Fever, cough, fluid drain from ear, pain in ear, loss of balance, difficulty in sleeping etc.

Ways to prevent infection: Use of Hib vaccine before the six month of age and booster dose before the complementation of one year of age and maintaining of hygiene.

How your organism be treated: Use of antibiotic treatment like Cefotaxime, Ceftazidim, Ampicillin, Amoxycillin with clavulanate etc.

What a nurse needs to know about your organism references: It is a severe infection care properly the infected individual.
