Tuberculosis Descriptions and Checklist for Signature
TB Description and Checklist Tuberculosis is caused by the microorganism, Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The germ is transmitted in the air from one person to another, and through cows with non-pasteurized milk. Frequently, onset of clinical symptoms and progression of the disease can be tied to impairment or damage to the immune system. Signs and Symptoms of Tuberculosis (TB) Most commonly, early stages of tuberculosis have no symptoms. Sometimes, the person infected may have cough and fever. As the disease progresses, it produces more apparent symptoms. These include fever, weight loss, chronic fatigue and heavy sweating, especially at night. As tuberculosis worsens in the lungs, it produces sputum that becomes progressively bloody, yellow, thick or gray. There is often chest pain or discomfort and shortness of breath. Cloudy or reddish urine can occur. Other symptoms can develop when other organ systems become involved, such as the brain. Lumps may develop in the nasal cavity. Pott’s disease or tuberculosis of the spine is associated with back pain, fever, chills and night sweats. Varying degrees of weakness or numbness may occur in the legs or around the genitals and rectum. List of Symptoms: Reoccurring fever and chills Ongoing cough Weight loss Chronic fatigue Heavy sweating Chest pain Shortness of breath Cloudy or reddish urine Lumps in my nasal cavity By signing this document I verify I have NOT had signs or symptoms of tuberculosis (see list above) since my most recent chest x-ray, and that I have not knowingly been exposed to tuberculosis or hepatitis. I agree to notify PQSI immediately if I think I’ve been exposed to T.B. _____________________ ______________________ ___________ Employee Name (printed) Employee Signature Date (See Next Page )
Hepatitis Description and Checklist for Signature
Hepatitis B is a viral infection of the liver contracted by coming into contact with an infected person's blood or bodily fluids. Less than half of those with short-term (acute) Hepatitis B infections have symptoms. Symptoms include:
Jaundice (the skin and whites of the eyes appear yellow). Although jaundice is the defining sign of hepatitis B, it does not occur in most cases. Jaundice usually appears after other symptoms have started to go away.
Extreme tiredness (fatigue). Mild fever. Headache. Loss of appetite. Nausea. Vomiting. Constant discomfort on the right side of the abdomen under the rib cage,
where the liver is located. In most people, the discomfort is made worse when their bodies are jarred or if they overwork themselves.
Diarrhea or constipation. Muscle aches. Joint pain. Skin rash.
Work-related exposure. People who handle blood or instruments used to draw blood may become infected with the virus. Health care workers are at risk of becoming infected with the virus if they are accidentally stuck with a used needle or other sharp instrument infected with an infected person's blood, or if blood splashes onto an exposed surface, such as the eyes, mouth, or a cut in the skin. Grooming items such as razors and toothbrushes can spread HBV if they carry blood from a person who is infected. If you have come in contact with an infected person, you are required to notify us immediately of such exposure. Immediate action must be taken to stop the spread of the Hepatitis B virus. You have the option, if exposed, to receive the Hepatitis B vaccine. By signing below, you acknowledge that you currently have no signs or symptoms of Hepatitis B and agree to adhere to our policy of immediate notification if you think you've been exposed.
