| meningitis, pneumococcal | Meningitis caused by bacteria of the species streptococcus pneumoniae. This condition can develop as a complication of pneumococcal pneumonia; by extension from otitis, mastoiditis, or sinusitis; following a skull injury; or without preceding sign of infection elsewhere. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| pneumococcal | Pertaining to or containing the pneumococcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pneumococcal empyema | Infection of the pleural cavity by Streptococcus pneumoniae, the pneumococcus, with pus formation. Pulsating empyema, a large, tense collection of pus in the pleural cavity through which the cardiac pulsations are transmitted to the chest wall. Streptococcal empyema, purulent exudation into the pleural cavity caused by infection with Streptococcus haemolyticus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pneumococcal infections | Infections with bacteria of the species streptococcus pneumoniae. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pneumococcal pneumonia | Pneumonia due to infection by Streptococcus pneumoniae; often of lobar distribution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pneumococcal pneumonia immunization | This vaccine, which prevents one of the most common and severe forms of pneumonia, is usually given only once in a lifetime, usually after the age of 55, to someone with ongoing lung problems (such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or asthma) or other chronic diseases (including those involving the heart and kidneys). This vaccination would rarely be given to children. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pneumococcal polysaccharide | A soluble type-specific polysaccharide produced during active growth of virulent pneumococci composing a large part of the capsule. Synonym: pneumococcal polysaccharide, soluble specific substance, specific soluble polysaccharide, specific soluble sugar. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pneumococcal/suppurative keratitis | A severe, creeping, central, suppurative ulcer often due to pneumococci. Synonym: pneumococcal/suppurative keratitis, serpent ulcer of cornea. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pneumococcal vaccine | Vaccine comprised of purified capsular polysaccharide antigen from 23 types of Streptococcus pneumoniae (representing those types responsible for most of the reported pneumococcal diseases in the U.S.). (05 Mar 2000) |
| pneumonia, pneumococcal | A febrile disease caused by streptococcus pneumoniae. This condition is characterised by inflammation of one or more lobes of the lungs and symptoms include chills, fever, rapid breathing, and cough. (12 Dec 1998) |
| immunization, pneumococcal pneumonia | This vaccine, which prevents one of the most common and severe forms of pneumonia, is usually given only once in a lifetime, usually after the age of 55, to someone with ongoing lung problems (such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) or asthma) or other chronic diseases (including those involving the heart and kidneys). This vaccination would rarely be given to children. (12 Dec 1998) |
| aids vaccines | Vaccines or candidate vaccines containing inactivated HIV or some of its component antigens and designed to prevent aids. Some vaccines containing antigens are recombinantly produced. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bacterial vaccines | Suspensions of attenuated or killed bacteria administered for the prevention or treatment of infectious bacterial disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cancer vaccines | Vaccines or candidate vaccines designed to prevent or treat cancer. Vaccines are produced using the patient's own whole tumour cells as the source of antigens, or using tumour-specific antigens, often recombinantly produced. (12 Dec 1998) |
| vaccines | Vaccines are microbial preparations of killed or modified microorganisms which can stimulate an immune response in the body in order to prevent future infection with similar microorganism. The smallpox vaccine has totally eliminated the smallpox disease from our planet. (12 Dec 1998) |
