Unit 5: Infectious Disease
The medical examiner who performed Anna Garcia’s autopsy
pulled copies of Anna’s medical records before proceeding with the autopsy.
Interestingly, the medical examiner discovered that Anna had been hospitalized
just ten days prior to her death for a sickle cell crisis and subsequently was
treated for an infection that was most likely acquired during her hospital
stay. The medical examiner then noted that a page of the medical history is
missing. Throughout this lesson, students will play the role of medical
detectives in order to investigate Anna’s mystery infection. Ultimately, they
will need to identify the exact pathogen, or infectious agent,
responsible for Anna’s illness.
