Initial diagnostik og behandling af formodet akut bakteriel meningitis.
Udgiver: Dansk Selskab for Infektionsmedicin 2018
Rapport og anbefaling vedrørende ulemper og fordele ved henholdsvis at undlade eller gennemføre lumbalpunktur for patienter i blodfortyndende behandling mistænkt for akut bakteriel meningitis.
Denne vejledning er tiltænkt diagnostik og behandling af formodet Lyme neuroborreliose hos voksne. Vejledningen er udarbejdet som et supplement til Borrelia klaringsrapport (2014).
Af Rikke Krogh-Madsen, formand for Dansk Selskab for Infektionsmedicin. Der er lige nu massivt fokus på læger der har begået fejl. Aktuelt drejer det sig om behandling af meningokoksygdom. Bestyrelsen for Dansk Selskab for Infektionsmedicin (DSI) kender ikke til detaljerne i de konkrete sager og har ikke set sagsakterne. Dette er derfor en generel udtalelse som tager udgangspunkt i udmeldingen fra Patienterstatningen vedr. de tre meningokok-sager.

Bacterial meningitis is a severe infection with a high mortality rate. In a systematic analysis, it was estimated that there were 2.82 million cases of bacterial meningitis and 318,400 deaths worldwide in 2016 [1]. In North America, the annual incidence rate of bacterial meningitis has been estimated to range between 1.4 and 3.4 cases per 100,000 [2,3].

Purpose of review . We review recent advances in diagnosis and treatment of chronic meningitis, focusing on tuberculous meningitis (TBM), cryptococcal meningitis (CM), syphilitic meningitis, neuroborreliosis, and recurrent chronic meningitis. Noninfectious causes and unique challenges faced in resource-limited settings are also considered. Recent findings . Novel biomarkers are being identified that may be useful for the diagnosis of TBM [i.e.

Purpose of review . This review addresses the multifaceted nature of aseptic meningitis, a condition with diverse infectious and noninfectious etiologies. Despite its common presentation in clinical settings, over half of the cases remain without an identified cause, necessitating a comprehensive examination of diagnostic and management strategies.

Abstract . Background . Several ongoing clinical trials are evaluating high-dose rifampicin (up to 35 mg/kg) for tuberculous meningitis (TBM). However, rifampicin pharmacokinetics at higher doses is not fully characterized, particularly in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), the site of TBM disease.Methods .

Abstract . The promising results of the Ambition-CM trial in persons with HIV have sparked interest in treating non-HIV-associated cryptococcal meningitis with single 10mg/kg liposomal amphotericin B, combined with oral flucytosine and fluconazole. However, caution is warranted when applying this approach to non-HIV organ transplant recipients, whose immune status may vary due to the effects of immunosuppressive drugs.

Bacterial meningitis is a severe infectious disease. Study of bacterial meningitis of children in recent years are limited. It is unclear whether there have been any changes in the epidemiological characteristics of bacterial meningitis during the years of the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study was to describe a large, nationwide study of bacterial meningitis in China. We analyzed data of hospitalized patients with bacterial meningitis from 30 hospitals in China from 2016—2021.

. Background. In 2017, WHO published a list of bacteria for which new antibiotics are urgently needed. The main bacteria are common causes of nosocomial meningitis. The key focuses are carbapenem resistance, vancomycin resistance, methicillin resistance, and extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) production.

Abstract . Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) remains the most lethal form of tuberculosis (TB). Despite significant physiological differences, adults, and children with TBM receive similar treatment and are often grouped together in research. Consequently, differences in TBM characteristics across the lifespan are poorly understood but may be relevant to developing more effective and age-appropriate interventions.

. Introduction. Childhood tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is a devastating disease. The long-standing WHO recommendation for treatment is 2 months of intensive phase with isoniazid (H), rifampicin (R), pyrazinamide (Z) and ethambutol (E), followed by 10 months of isoniazid and rifampicin. In 2022, WHO released a conditional recommendation that 6 months of intensified antituberculosis therapy (ATT) could be used as an alternative for drug-susceptible TBM.

Probiotics, defined as live microorganisms that confer health benefits when administered in adequate quantities [1], have demonstrated efficacy in reducing neonatal complications including necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), all-cause mortality, late-onset sepsis, and feeding intolerance [2]. Clostridium butyricum (C. butyricum) is a strict anaerobe, producing butyric acid as a metabolic byproduct, hence also called butyric acid bacteria. C.

Pneumococcal meningitis is a severe infection with high mortality and morbidity rates [1]. Despite advances in antimicrobial therapy and supportive care, new treatment strategies are required to improve outcome [1]. One frequently observed complication is an elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), attributed to several pathophysiological mechanisms, including brain swelling due to cerebritis, cerebral infarctions, thrombosis and hemorrhages resulting from blood vessel inflammation [2].

… Background. In low-resource settings, limited laboratory capacity adds to the burden of central nervous system (CNS) infections in children and spurs overuse of antibiotics. The commercially available BioFire® FilmArray® Meningitis/Encephalitis Panel (FA-ME) with its capability to simultaneously detect 14 pathogens in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), could potentially narrow such a diagnostic gap. .
