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.

… Johansen kommenterer: Et trist resultat: I 2013 rapporterede Ruslami et al. (Lancet Infect Dis. 2013 Jan;13(1):27-35) nedsat mortalitet ved IV administrering af en øget dosis Rifampicin og Moxifloxacin i blot 14 dage til ca. 60 patienter med tuberkuløs meningitis - efterfulgt af standard behandling. Der var derfor store forventninger til denne store kliniske trial, hvor effekten af øget Rifampicin dosis samt et flourquinolon (per oralt) blev undersøgt på ca. 700 Vietnamesiske patienter.

. Background. Despite significant advances in prevention and treatment strategies, meningitis continues to pose a substantial global health challenge. The disease burden demonstrates marked geographical disparities, with disproportionate impact in resource-limited settings, particularly within the “meningitis belt” of Sub-Saharan Africa. The global meningitis burden is influenced by a complex interplay of environmental, behavioral, and socioeconomic determinants.

In this article, we review host and drug factors that influence an antibiotic’s likely effectiveness for the treatment of bacterial meningitis. We also review the preclinical and clinical data in support of or against each of the aforementioned agents for the treatment of bacterial meningitis.

Congenital Parechovirus Meningitis Presenting as In-utero Intraventricular Hemorrhage: A Case Report
International Journal of Infectious Diseases

Human parechovirus (HPeV) infection is increasingly recognized as a cause of severe illness in infants, including sepsis, meningitis, encephalitis, and seizures [1]. In neonates, HPeV encephalitis is associated with white matter injury and neurodevelopmental sequelae [2,3]. To our knowledge, there are only three case reports of congenitally acquired parechovirus infection.

. Abstract. . Background. Bacterial meningitis (BM) is a life-threatening central nervous system infection with potential for severe neurological sequelae. High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is known as a late inflammatory mediator associated with lethal pathology. This study aims to investigate the serial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of HMGB1 in children with BM and its relationship to neurological prognosis. .

. Abstract. . Background. The diagnosis of healthcare-associated ventriculitis and meningitis (HCAVM) can be complex because multiple factors confound the interpretation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) tests. The cell index (CI) may help in the diagnosis of HCAVM. It does not incur additional medical cost and it avoids delays from the turnaround time of CSF cultures.
