  1. Veronica Brock, Ph.D. student Walden UniversityPUBH 8165-x Instructor: Dr. Raymond ThronSummer, 2012 Campylobacter jejuni and you

  2. This presentation focuses on methods to increase the publics knowledge of campylobacter jejuni in the community. It offers some suggestions on how to prevent the spread of this bacteria. This presentation is directed to the conventional consumer.

  3. One of the most common causes of bacterial diarrhea in the United States is Campylobacter, with over 2 million cases each year (Center for Disease Control, 2011). • Campylobacter is now the leading cause human gastroenteritis in many developing countries with enteritis in humans caused mainly by Campylobacter Jejuni (Hermans, et al., 2011). Three times more infective than Salmonella.

  4. Campylobacter jejuni (C jejuni) is accountable for more than 90% of human campylobacteriosis (Hwang, Jeon, Yun, & Ryu, 2011) • Cause of travelers diarrhea Associated with enteric illness

  5. The leading cause of food poisoning in humans • Gram negative bacteria s-shaped or spiral rods • A polar tail at one or both ends

  6. Most people who become infected with C. jejuni develop fever, diarrhea and abdominal cramping within three to five days of exposure (Center for Disease Control, 2010). Stools may be bloody. The course of the infection may last 7-10 days (Food Safety.Gov). • Headache, right lower abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, tenesmus

  7. Although rare, studies have established a relationship between Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) and C. jejuni infection, which showed that one-fourth to one-third of GBS patients developed the syndrome after being infected (Yuki, et al., 2004). • Meningitis, recurrent colitis, acute cholecystitis are also rare complications of C.jejuni infections (U.S. Food and drug Administration, 2012) and

  8. Death

  9. Mode of transmission

  10. Unpasteurized milk Inadequately cooked poultry Untreated water

  11. Most cases are isolated sporadic events, caused by eating raw or uncooked food, not as outbreaks (Center for Disease Control, 2010) • Which makes the most efficient route between chance of exposure and case of exposure

  12. YOU

  13. EMERGING RESISTANCE

  14. Fluoroquinolone resistance is now recognized as an emerging public health problem (Engberg, Aarestrup, Taylor, Gerner-Smidt, & Nachamkin, 2001)

  15. There is evidence that an acquired immunity has been obtained from studies in industrialized countries. • Resistance to colonization was seen in children in developing countries accompanied by a shift in the illness-to-infection ratio for children between 2-5 years of age.

  16. THE BEST DEFENSE PREVENTION

  17. FSIS • USDA • HCCPS Agencies working to prevent the spread of C. jejeuni

  18. Preventing the spread of infection would include washing surfaces between cutting foods, washing your hands frequently, thoroughly cooking meats.
