This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Staphylococci Masters, S. lugdunensis infection mainly endocarditis of damaged native valve, infection of e.g. prosthetic heart valve and joints, IV lines, shunts often characterized by Biofilm production, Staphylococci Coagulase negative Staph S. epidermidis, Staphylococci Coagulase positive Staphylococci S. aureus, TSST-1 MOA Superantigen, Staphylococci Coagulase negative Staph S. saprophyticus, Staphylococci Coagulase negative Staph S. lugdunensis, Cellulitis description Diffuse inflammation of connective tissue with severe inflammation of dermal and sub-q layers of skin, abcesses of the skin types of abscesses pustule, S. aureus toxin-mediated diseases Scalded-skin syndrome, S. aureus sources contact with abscess from infected individual, S. epidermidis infection infection of e.g. prosthetic heart valve and joints, IV lines, shunts, abcesses of the skin types of abscesses carbuncle, S. aureus other skin infections Cellulitis, S. saprophyticus infection UTI, S. aureus other skin infections Impetigo, S. aureus sources Nasopharynx, pustule clinical feature an infected hair follice. Base of follicle appears erythematous. accumulation of pus just under epi- dermis. Foliculitis, Septicemia, Bacteremia can lead to Endocarditis Meningitis Osteomyelitis Abscesses on internal organs, furuncle clinical feature Large, raised, pus-filled painful nodules. Accumulation of dead, necro- tic tissue at base. Bacterial spread to adjacent subcutaneous tissue
