Types of Immunity 1
Types of Immunity 2
Immune Dysfunction
Hypersensitivity
100
  • Intact skin, mucous membranes, stomach acid, and gastrointestinal microflora are defense mechanisms associated with this type of immunity
  • Innate immunity
100
  • These leukocytes ensure that the immune response does not become too strong
  • CD-8 cells, T-suppressor cells
100
  • Stasis of respiratory secretions and urine increase the risk of infection in this patient population
  • Older adults, elderly
100
  • This is the most effective measure for patients who live with allergies
  • Avoiding the allergen
200
  • This term refers to when the immune response is too weak OR too vigorous, causing a disruption to homeostasis
  • Immunoincompetence
200
  • Being immune to catching chickenpox after having it once is an example of this type of adaptive immunity
  • Active natural
200
  • The failure of the immune system’s ability to distinguish “self” from “non-self” is the basis of this type of disease
  • Autoimmune disorder, autoimmune disease
200
  • Severe hypotension and laryngeal edema are potentially fatal effects of this type of hypersensitivity reaction
  • Anaphylaxis, anaphylactic reaction
300
  • Intact skin, mucous membranes, stomach acid, and gastrointestinal microflora are defense mechanisms associated with this type of immunity
  • Innate immunity
300
  • Being vaccinated against high-risk types of human papillomavirus (HPV) with the Gardasil vaccine is an example of this type of adaptive immunity
  • Active artificial
300
  • A decline in cell-mediated immunity and increased incidence of cancer are both effects of this normal process in the human body
  • Aging
300
  • Bronchoconstriction, itching, and edema are symptoms brought on by the release of this substance in the body
  • Histamine
400
  • This type of immunity includes humoral and cellular immunity
  • Adaptive immunity
400
  • The passage of maternal antibodies to an infant in breastmilk is an example of this type of adaptive immunity
  • Passive natural
400
  • These four factors can disrupt the function and number of T-cells, impairing immune function
  • Aging, radiation, chemotherapy, anxiety, stress, loneliness, sleep disturbance, malnutrition
400
  • This type of latex allergy causes scaling and hyperpigmentation of the skin with chronic exposure
  • Type IV Contact Dermatitis
500
  • These leukocytes produce antibodies
  • B cells
500
  • The administration of Rh-immune globulin (RhoGam) to an Rh-negative mother after giving birth is an example of this type of adaptive immunity
  • Passive artificial
500
  • Immunoincompetence can be broken down into these four categories
  • Allergy, immunodeficiency, autoimmune disorders, attacks on beneficial foreign tissue
500
  • This medication’s therapeutic effects include bronchodilation, vasoconstriction, and inhibition of histamine release
  • Epinephrine
