  • When would you use IV fluid repletion over oral
    Severe hypovolemia
  • Differentiate clinical presentation viral v. bacterial gastroenteritis
    Viral (specifically norovirus) primary symptom is vomiting
  • GUESS WHO - ____ ran into a glass wall in front of everyone at a fancy restaurant because the glass was so clean
    Andrew
  • GUESS WHO - ____ had a presentation in front of an important person and finished the presentation to find their sons spit up all over their suit
    Dr. LoCurto
  • Pathogenesis of gastroenteritis (specifically E. coli)
    fecal-oral transmission -> adhesions (CF) to attach to intestinal epithelium -> disrupts absorptive and secretory properties of mucosal epithelium -> diarrhea
  • GUESS WHO - ______ called their teacher "mom" in middle school in front of the class
    Alyssa
  • Prevention of gastroenteritis
    Proper HYGIENE! Fully-cooked foods; water purification
  • Use of PCR analysis in Dx/treatment
    More accurate pathogen identification for targeted treatment
  • Differentiate mild, moderate, and severe gastroenteritis clinical presentations
    Mild - diarrhea is tolerable; Moderate - distressing, interferes with plans; severe - incapacitating, completely prevents plans
  • GUESS WHO - ___ fell asleep in STRX and woke up as the only student in the main room with the facilitators (breakout rooms)
    Sarah
  • GUESS WHO - At a bar, ___significant other rubs Dominic Monaghan's hair and exclaimed "you are so short!"
    Charles
  • What is occurring at the crypt cells
    Contain channels for Cl- secretion (responds to increases in cAMP)
  • MOA of ondansetron
    *
  • Enterotoxicogenic E. coli virulence factors
    Adhesions (colonizing factor) and Exotoxins (heat-labile toxin -> increase Cl- secretion & heat-stable toxin - decrease reabsorption NaCl and H20)
  • GUESS WHO - _____ pointed confidently to the vertebrae on the cadaver when Dr. B asked where the trachea was
    Sandhya
  • MOA of oral rehydration therapy
    Intestinal glucose absorption via sodium-glucose cotransport remains intact. Intestine can absorb water if glucose and salt are also present to transport water
  • GUESS WHO - ___ got "pantsed" in the middle of Macys, showing everyone their underwear
    Astrid
  • Differentiate secretory and osmotic diarrhea
    Secretory - excess secretion of electrolytes and water; osmotic - excessive solutes in intestine causing water to not be reabsorbed
  • Subclass of Ondansetron
    Antiemetic; selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonist
  • Enterotoxigenic E. coli causes inflammation T or F
    FALSE
  • Significance of stool sample
    Causative organism (viral v. bacterial, etc.)
  • S. boulardii is a bacterial probiotic - T or F
    FALSE - yeast
