Chapter 5 Infection Control: Principles and Practices

Students will be able to identify the shape and characteristics of bacteria. Note the difference between pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria.

AB
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are obtained fromthe product manufacturer
Regulatory agencies and government health departments require businesses that serve the public tofollow prescribed sanitary precautions
Bacteria are very small and can only be seen with the aid ofa microscope
One-celled microorganisms with both plant and animal characteristics arebacteria
In the human body, nonpathogenic bacteria help metabolize food, protect against infecctious microorganisms, andstimulate the immune response
Bacteria can existalmost anywhere
A small minority of bacteria that cause disease when invading plant or animal tissue arepathgenic
A type of pathogenic bacteria that require living matter for growth areparasites
Pus-forming bacteria arranged in curved lines that resemble a string of beads arestreptococci
Cocci are pathogenic bacteria that areround-shape
Bacteria that may cause strep throat or blood poisoning arestreptococci
Bacteria that grow in pairs and can cause pneumonia arediplococci
Lyme disease, syphilis, or STD are caused by spiral or corscrew-shaped bacteria calledspirilla
In humans, pathogenic bacteria are known to producediseases
Bacteria that are transmitted through the air and rarely show active motility arecocci
Bacilli and spirilla bacteria are both motile and use slender, hairlike extensions known asflagella
Harmless bacteria are what type of bacterianonpathogenic bacteria
In 2000, a bacteria called Mycobacterium fortuitum furunculosis cased a client outbreak due to the failure of the practitioner to follow proper disinfection guidelines forwhirlpool foot spas
Bacteria generally consist of an outer wall container a liquid calledprotoplasm
The life cycle of bacteria has two distinct phases, the active stage andinactive or spore-forming stage
The process whereby bacteria grow, reproduce, and divide into two new cells ismitosis
Bacteria that pose little or no risk to a client in the salon setting but are dangerous in the medical setting areanthrax and tetanus bacilli
The presence of pus is a sign of a (n)bacterial infection
When body tissues are invaded by pathogenic bacteria, it is a sign of a (n)infection
Common human bacteria transferred through skin-to-skin contact or by using unclean implements arecontagious
When a disease spreads from one person to another, it is communicable orcontagious
An infection, indicated by a lesion containing pus, confined to a particular part of the body is alocal infection
When a disease spreads from one person to another by contact, it iscontagious
A submicroscopic structure capable of infecting plants and animals including bacteria is avirus
A virus can live and reproduce only byattaching to a bloodborne virus and becoming part of it
Hepatitis A, a bloodborne virus, is marked by an inflamation of theliver
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is the virus that causesAcquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome
An organism that lives on another living organism and draws its nourishment from that organism is aparasite
If nail implements have not been disinfected properly, the client may contractnail fungus
Disease-causing bacteria or viruses that are carried through the body in the blood fluids arebloodborne pathogens
Transmission of bloodborne pathogens can become possible through shaving, nipping, facial treatements, waxing, tweezing, oranytime the skin barrier is broken
A skin disease caused by an infestation of head lice ispediculosis
The ability of the body to destroy pathogenic bacteria or viruses that have entered the body isimmunity
The type of immunity the body develops after overcoming a disease or through vaccinations isacquired immunity
The surface of tools or objects not completely free from dirt, oils, and microbes are covered withcontaminants
The process of removing pathogens and other substances from tools and surfaces isdecontamination
The three main types of decontamination aresanitation, disinfection, and sterilization
Decontamination is a process that involves the use ofphysical or chemical means to remove or destroy pathogens
Estheticians who use needles and probes that lance the skin must use a level of decontamination calledsterilization
In the salon setting, disinfection is extremely effective in controllingmicroorganisms on non-living surfaces
A higher level of decontamination than sanitation isdisinfection
An exception to the level of protection that disinfection provides and the possibility of an infection could be present ifthe client's skin is broken
A chemical agent that is used to destroy bacteria and viruses on surfaces isdisinfectant
Disinfectants must have a registration number and be approved by theEnvironmental Protection Agency (EPA)
A manufacturer must supply pertinent safety and storage information by providingMaterial Safety Data Sheets
The agency that enforces safety and health standards in the workplace isOSHA
A disinfectant that meets regulatory agency requirements for destroying bacteria, fungi, and viruses isbacterial, fungicidal, and virucidal
A disinfectant used in salons should be appropriate and have the correctefficacy
A salon implement that accidentally comes in contact with blood or body fluids should be cleaned andcompletely immersed in an EPA-registered disinfectant
Any item that cannot be disinfected after use on a client must bediscarded
Common, very safe and useful types of disinfectant that contain sophisticated blends that work to disinfect implements in 10 to 15 minutes arequaternary ammonium compounds
Disinfectant with a high pH that can cause skin irritation or burn the skin or eyes arephenolic disinfectants
To be effective in the disinfection of implements, ethyl alcohol must be no less than70 percent
A common household product used effectively as a disinfectant issodium hypochlorite
When mixing a disinfectant solution, add disinfectant solution, add disinfectant to water andmix according to the manufacturer's exact directions
To avoid contaminating implements, remove from a disinfectant solution usingtongs, basket, or gloves
Store a clean, disinfected implements ina clean, dry container
How often must individual towels and linens be set aside to be launderedafter use on a client
The contact points of equipment that cannot be immersed in liquid solutions should be cleaned and disinfected using aregulatory oversight agency approved disinfectant
At the end of the day, cleaning and disinfection procedure for a foot spaflushing the system with low-sudsing soap and warm water for 10 minutes, rinsing, draining, and letting air-dry
Every week, foot spas should be cleaned following the daily procedure and filled witha disinfectant solution and left at least 6 to 10 hours, then drained and flushed
Any disposable material used in cleaning blood spills should beplaced in double bags before disposing or placed in a container for contaminated waste
The first step in the decontamination process is calledsanitation
When using liquid soap, scrub your hands and lather for at least20 seconds
The use of bar soap is prohibited in most salons because bar soapsgrow bacteria
Which of these is a danger of using antibacterial soapsthey may promote the growth of resistant strains
Antiseptics are effective forsanitizing the hands
The agency that sets the standard for dealing with bloodborne pathogens isOSHA
Universal precautions require employees to assume that human blood and body fluids are infectious forbloodborne pathogens
A client that is infected with Hepatitis B or other bloodborne pathogens and shows no symptoms or signs of infection isasymptomatic
