• Def : inflammation of meninges. • Causes : Meningitis Bacterial meningitis : - Pneumococcal meningitis : most common cause & highest mortality (20%). - Neisseria meningitides (meningiococci). - Listeria monocytogenes meningitis - Streptococcal agalactae (group B β-hemolytic streptococci) in neonates. - Haemophilus influenza. Non-bacterial (Aseptic) meningitis : A. Viral meningitis : - Herpes simplex meningio-encephalitis : 95% of causes in adults. - EBV meningio-encephalitis. B. Non-viral meningitis : (TB ,Lyme disease,syphilis ,fugal) C. Non-infectious meningitis : (sarcoidosis ,neoplastic,drugs). • Common organisms in relation to age : 0 - 3 months Group B Streptococcus (most common cause in neonates) E. coli. Listeria monocytogenes. 3 months - 6 years Neisseria meningitidis Streptococcus pneumoniae Haemophilus influenzae 6 years - 60 years Neisseria meningitidis Streptococcus pneumoniae > 60 years Streptococcus pneumoniae Neisseria meningitidis Listeria monocytogenes Immunosuppressed Listeria monocytogene • Mode of infection : blood born infection from septic focus e.g pharyngitis,sinusitis,IE 146
• General C/P : ( it`s not a must to have all the features for diagnosis) 1) Fever , headache & hypotension (in severe cases). 2) Haemorrhagic skin rash/trunk & extremities may appear. 3) Neck rigidity. 4) Back rigidity. 5) Kernig's sign is positive . 6) Brudzinski's sign is positive 7) Altered mental status . 8) Seizures. • CSF findings : Bacterial Viral TB Appearance Cloudy Clear/cloudy Fibrin web Glucose Low (< 1/2 plasma) Normal (low in mumps) Low (< 1/2 plasma) Protein High (> 1 g/l) Normal/raised High (> 1 g/l) White cells/mm³ 10 - 5,000 polymorphs 15 - 1,000 lymphocytes 10 - 1,000 lymphocytes - The Ziehl-Neelsen stain is only 20% sensitive in the detection of tuberculous meningitis and therefore PCR is sometimes used (sensitivity = 75%). • Management of meningiococcal meningitis : 1) Penicillin (benzyl penicillin) : is the drug of choice. 2) If penicillin allergic With H/O anaphylaxis Chloramphenicol No H/O anaphylaxis Cefotxime • BNF recommendations for antibiotics in suspected meningitis : Scenario Initial empirical therapy aged < 3 months OR > 50 years Initial empirical therapy aged 3 months - 50 years Meningococcal meningitis Pneuomococcal meningitis or Haemophilus influenzae Meningitis caused by Listeria BNF recommendation I.V Cefotaxime + Amoxicillin I.V Cefotaxime I.V Benzylpenicillin or Cefotaxime I.V Cefotaxime I.V Amoxicillin + Gentamicin 147
