TETANUS AND DIPHTHERIA VACCINE (Td) Why get vaccinated? Tetanus (lockjaw) and diphtheria are serious diseases. Tetanus is caused by a germ that enters the body through a cut or wound. Tetanus causes serious painful spasms of all the muscles. It can lead to: "locking" of the jaw , so the patient cannot open his or her mouth or swallow. Diphtheria spreads when germs pass from an infected person to the nose or throat of others. Diphtheria causes a thick coating in the nose, throat, or airway. It can lead to: breathing problems, heart failure, paralysis, and death. Why should I get vaccinated? Vaccination is the best way to protect against tetanus and diphtheria. Because of vaccination, there are many fewer cases of these diseases. When should you get Td vaccine? Td is made for people 7 years of age or older. People who have not gotten at least 3 doses of any tetanus and diphtheria vaccine (DTP, DTaP or DT) during their lifetime should do so using Td. After a person gets the third dose, a Td dose is needed every 10 years all through life. Other vaccines may be given at the same time as Td.

Public Health Division Department of Human Services Government of Victoria Australia home news ... about THE BLUE BOOK : Guidelines for the control of infectious diseases Contents Diphtheria Victorian Statutory Requirement Group A notification. School exclusion. Infectious Agent Corynebacterium diphtheriae Clinical Features Acute bacterial disease of tonsils, pharynx, larynx, nose and occasionally other mucous membranes, skin, conjunctivae and genitalia. The throat is sore in faucial or pharyngotonsillar diphtheria with cervical lymph nodes enlarged and tender. In severe cases, there is marked swelling and oedema of the neck. Cutaneous diphtheria also occurs, generally without systemic symptoms. Laryngeal disease is serious in infants and young children. Public Health Significance Cases are now rare since widespread immunisation. They occur mainly in winter, generally in unimmunised children under 15 years, but also in unimmunised adults. Case fatality rate is high, especially if there is delay in diagnosis and treatment with antitoxin. Outbreaks have occurred in Europe among non-immunised populations.

In more serious cases, it can attack the heart and nerves. Because of widespread immunization, diphtheria is very rare. Diphtheria is re-emerging in some areas of the world where immunization practices are lax. Routine vaccination of both children and adults is essential to control diphtheria.

DIPTHERIA, TETANUS AND PERTUSSIS VACCINES What you need to know before your child gets the vaccines. Diphtheria, tetanus (lockjaw), and pertussis (whooping cough) are serious diseases. Diphtheria and pertussis spread when germs pass from an infected person to the nose or throat of others. Tetanus is caused by a term that enters the body through a cut or wound. Diphtheria causes: a thick coating in the nose, throat or airway Tetanus causes: serious, painful spasms of all muscles Pertussis causes: coughing and choking for several weeks (makes it hard for infants to eat, drink or breathe) It can lead to: -breathing problems -heart failure -paralysis -death It can lead to: -"locking" of the jaw so the patient cannot open his or her mouth or swallow -death It can lead to: -pneumonia -seizures (jerking and staring spells) -death ABOUT THE VACCINES Benfits of Vaccination - Vaccination is the best way to protect against diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis. Because most children get the vaccines, there are now many fewer cases of these diseases. There would be many more cases if we stopped vaccinating children.

Drugs Approved by the FDA Drug Name: Tripedia (Diptheria and Tetanus Toxoids and Acellular Pertussis Vaccine Absorbed) The following information is obtained from various newswires, published medical journal articles, and medical conference presentations. Company: Connaught Laboratories Approval Status: Approved August 1996 Treatment for: whooping cough General Information Tripedia has been approved as an injected whooping cough vaccine for children up to three years of age. Whooping cough, or pertussis, is a highly contagious disease that usually hits children under age three, causing severe coughing and difficulty in breathing. Tripedia is made of just a portion of the killed pertussis bacteria. This acellular vaccine has also been approved in the United States for booster shots in older children, and it has been used for 15 years in Japan for children of all ages. American infants will be given this acellular vaccine at ages two, four and six months as well as booster shots later. Clinical Results A large-scale phase III efficacy study was conducted in Germany from 1993 to 1995 and enrolled 16,780 infants between six and 17 weeks of age. Tripedia was administered to 12,517 of the infants. The efficacy of the acellular pertussis vaccine in the German case-control study was 80% for culture-confirmed pertussis cough of 21 days.

Diptheria tox repressor Protein-DNA complexes Characteristics of the family: Function: The virulent phenotype of the pathogenic bacterium Corynebacterium diphtheriae is conferred by diphtheria toxin, whose expression is an adaptive response to low concentrations of iron. The expression of the toxin gene (tox) is regulated by the repressor diptheria tox which is activated by transition metal ions. Structure: Diptheria tox is a 225 residue protein binding DNA as a dimer. Each monomer consists of 6 helices and a short two-stranded beta-sheet, with helices 2 and 3 constituting the HTH motif. Binding: The DNA interacts with two dimers bound to opposite sides of the tox operator with each dimer interacting with two major groove regions. Together, the two HTH motifs (one in each dimer) bind a 24 base pair sequence.

49. Ashley Vet Clinic - Calf Diptheria Calf diptheria (necrotic laryngitis) is an infection of the larynx (voicebox)of cattle caused by the same bacteria that causes bovine footrot. http://www.ashleyvet.com/html/calfdiptheria.htm

Calf diptheria (necrotic laryngitis) is an infection of the larynx (voicebox) of cattle caused by the same bacteria that causes bovine footrot. Calves with diptheria usually have a sudden onset of labored breathing and a "honking" noise when they breathe. This "honking" is due to a narrowed airway that results form the infection and inflammation. Diptheria is often mistaken for pneumonia. Treatment for diptheria consists of antibiotics and anti-inflammatories and must be continued for several days beyond clinical signs in order to prevent relapses. Generally we use a combination of sulfa (either Albon or Bovazine), Dexamethasone and Micotil. When relapses do occur the disease becomes much more difficult to treat and the prognosis is much poorer. Occasionally surgical intervention is necessary on chronic cases. Our treatment goal is to avoid surgery if possible. A full course of treatment takes at least five days.

Pediarix [diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and acellular pertussis adsorbed, hepatitis B (recombinant) and inactivated poliovirus vaccine combined] is a noninfectious, sterile, multivalent vaccine for intramuscular administration manufactured by SmithKline Beecham Biologicals. It contains diphtheria and tetanus toxoids, 3 pertussis antigens (inactivated pertussis toxin [PT], filamentous hemagglutinin [FHA], and pertactin [69 kiloDalton outer membrane protein]), hepatitis B surface antigen, plus poliovirus Type 1 (Mahoney), Type 2 (MEF-1), and Type 3 (Saukett). The diphtheria toxoid, tetanus toxoid, and pertussis antigens are the same as those in Infanrix (diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and acellular pertussis vaccine adsorbed). The hepatitis B surface antigen is the same as that in Engerix-B [hepatitis B vaccine (recombinant)]. The diphtheria toxin is produced by growing Corynebacterium diphtheriae in Fenton medium containing a bovine extract. Tetanus toxin is produced by growing

Coverage with DPT vaccine has already exceeded 92% of all target children. Future plans will concentrate on maintaining active surveillance and vigilant control of the disease. This will entail sustenance of immunity through adulthood by including booster doses to all students during and after leaving school age. Poliomyelitis Measles Diptheria Tetanus ... HIV - AIDS
