| pneumonia, staphylococcal | Pneumonia caused by staphylococcus aureus. This condition is a frequent complication of viral influenza. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| staphylococcal | Infection due to staphylococcus. (27 Sep 1997) |
| staphylococcal food poisoning | Poisoning by staphylococcal toxins present in contaminated food. (12 Dec 1998) |
| staphylococcal infections | Infections with bacteria of the genus staphylococcus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Staphylococcal neutral phosphatase | <enzyme> A surface-bound bacterial protein; highly cationic; shows maximum phosphatase activity at neutral pH; binds to immunoglobulin Registry number: EC 3.1.3.- Synonym: staphylococcal nptase, nptase (26 Jun 1999) |
| staphylococcal pneumonia | Pneumonia, usually caused by Staphylococcus aureus, usually commencing as a bronchopneumonia, and frequently leading to suppuration and destruction of lung tissue. (05 Mar 2000) |
| staphylococcal protein a | A protein present in the cell wall of most staphylococcus aureus strains. The protein selectively binds to the fc region of human normal and myeloma-derived IgG. It elicits antibody activity and may cause hypersensitivity reactions due to histamine release; has also been used as cell surface antigen marker and in the clinical assessment of b lymphocyte function. (12 Dec 1998) |
| staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome | <syndrome> A disease of infants due to group 2 phage type 17 staphylococci that produce an epidermolytic exotoxin. Superficial fine vesicles and bullae form and rupture easily, resulting in loss of large sheets of epidermis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| staphylococcal skin infections | Infections to the skin caused by bacteria of the genus staphylococcus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Bockhart's impetigo | <dermatology> A superficial follicular pustular eruption involving the scalp or other hairy area. Synonym: Bockhart's impetigo, superficial pustular perifolliculitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bullous impetigo of newborn | Usually, widely disseminated bullous lesions appearing soon after birth, caused by infection with Staphylococcus aureus. Synonym: impetigo neonatorum, pemphigus gangrenosus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| impetigo | <dermatology, microbiology> A contagious pyoderma caused by direct inoculation of group A streptococci or Staphylococcus aureus into superficial cutaneous abrasions or compromised skin. It is most commonly seen in children, usually located on the face, especially about the nose and mouth. The characteristic features are the presence of discrete fragile vesicles surrounded by an erythematous border that become pustular and rupture to discharge a thin, amber coloured seropurulent fluid that dries and forms a thick yellowish crust, the pustules may spread peripherally with central healing, evolving into annular, circinate or gyrate patterns. (18 Nov 1997) |
| impetigo bullosa | Impetigo with lesions of large size, forming bullae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| impetigo circinata | A ringlike configuration of bullous lesions of impetigo formed by confluence of several bullae or by the rupture of a single lesion with crusting of the periphery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| impetigo contagiosa | <dermatology, microbiology> A contagious pyoderma caused by direct inoculation of group A streptococci or Staphylococcus aureus into superficial cutaneous abrasions or compromised skin. It is most commonly seen in children, usually located on the face, especially about the nose and mouth. The characteristic features are the presence of discrete fragile vesicles surrounded by an erythematous border that become pustular and rupture to discharge a thin, amber coloured seropurulent fluid that dries and forms a thick yellowish crust, the pustules may spread peripherally with central healing, evolving into annular, circinate or gyrate patterns.
