Objectives

Describe the main respiratory pathogens in community and hospital-acquired lung infections along with their major distinguishing features.
General Objectives

Part 1 / Medical Foundation 1 / Respirology

Understand the pathogenesis of community-acquired meningitis.
General Objectives

Host Defense and Neoplasia

Upon completion of this case, students should recognize that pharyngitis is a common community-acquired viral infection usually caused by viruses and passed among close contacts either by direct contact or via droplet transmission. They should identify how viruses cause infections in the human host and the immune response to such invasion.
Global Objectives

Part 5 / Integration Foundation / Host Defense and Neoplasia

Upon completion of this case, students will describe how gastroenteritis can be caused by a spectrum of pathogens and that although it is a largely preventable infection, transmitted via the fecal-oral route, it is a common cause of public outbreaks.
Global Objectives

Host Defense and Neoplasia

Upon completion of this case, students will understand that community-acquired meningitis usually results from bacteria invading and bypassing the blood-brain barrier of a susceptible host, and appreciate deficiencies of the immune system that might predispose to infections by these pathogens.
