CHE SIGNIFICA TETANUS IN INGLESE
Tetano
Il tetano è una condizione medica caratterizzata da una contrazione prolungata delle fibre muscolari scheletriche. I sintomi primari sono causati da tetanospasmin, una neurotossina prodotta dal batterio anaerobico Clostridium tetani Gram-positivo, a forma di bastoncino, obbligatorio. L'infezione si verifica generalmente attraverso la contaminazione delle ferite e spesso comporta una ferita tagliata o profonda perforazione. Mentre l'infezione progredisce, spasmi muscolari si sviluppano nella mascella e altrove nel corpo. L'infezione può essere prevenuta mediante una corretta immunizzazione o una profilassi post-esposizione.
definizione di tetanus nel dizionario inglese
La definizione di tetano nel dizionario è anche chiamata: trisma. una malattia infettiva acuta in cui lo spasmo muscolare, la contrazione e la convulsione prolungati sono causati dal rilascio di esotossine dal batterio, il Clostridium tetani: l'infezione di solito avviene attraverso una ferita contaminata. L'altra definizione di tetano è qualsiasi contrazione tesa di un muscolo, specialmente se prodotta da scosse elettriche.
