Descriptor traslocación bacteriana
Entry term(s) translocación bacteriana
Scope note: Paso de bacterias viables desde el TRACTO GASTROINTESTINAL a localizaciones extraintestinales como los ganglios linfáticos mesentéricos, el hígado, el bazo, los riñones y la sangre. Los factores que favorecen la traslocación bacteriana son el sobrecrecimiento de bacilos entéricos gramnegativos, la alteración de las defensas inmunitarias del huésped y las lesiones de la MUCOSA INTESTINAL que dan lugar a incremento de la permeabilidad intestinal. También es posible la traslocación bacteriana desde el pulmón y a veces ocurre con la VENTILACIÓN MECÁNICA.

Entry term(s): Translocation, Bacterial
Tree number(s): G06.099.114
RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D018988
Scope note: The passage of viable bacteria from the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT to extra-intestinal sites, such as the mesenteric lymph node complex, liver, spleen, kidney, and blood. Factors that promote bacterial translocation include overgrowth with gram-negative enteric bacilli, impaired host immune defenses, and injury to the INTESTINAL MUCOSA resulting in increased intestinal permeability. Bacterial translocation from the lung to the circulation is also possible and sometimes accompanies MECHANICAL VENTILATION.
