Q

What can be seen in aseptic meningitis caused by poliovirus?

A

Sudden onset

Fever, headache, nausea, vomiting

Two febrile waves

After the second febrile wave, nuchal rigidity, Kernig and Brudzinski’s sign occurs

LP – at the beginning of the disease, predominance of segmented neutrophils can occur and after that lymphocytes count are elevated. Proteins are normal or low elevated
Sometimes protein-cell dissociation can be seen

Q

What are the 4 stages in the clinical course of the paralytic form of poliovirus infection?

A

Pre-paralytic stage
Paralytic stage
Recovery stage
Residual stage

18
Q

What are the stages of the spinal form of polio?

A

pre-paralytic stage
paralytic stage
recovery stage
residual stage

19
Q

What is involved in the pre-paralytic stage of the spinal form of polio?

A

Sudden onset
Fever
Muscular (motor) weakness
Hyporeflexes
Tremor
Weak innervation disturbances
Facies poliomyelitica
Pains in the back, neck, sweating

20
Q

What is involved in the paralytic stage?

A

Paralyses occur after 2-3 days of apirexia

Typical sluggish paralyses:
Proximal muscles are involved – m. deltoideus, m. quadriceps femoris, adductores femoris,
mm. fibularis longus et brevis, m. obliquus abdominis

Asymetric paralyses

Muscle hypo- or atonia

Hypo- or areflexia

The duration of the paralyses is about two weeks

21
Q

What is involved in the recovery stage of spinal form of polio?

A

Its duration is up to 2-3 years
Reflexes go better, after that muscle tonus and muscle trophy last
In the most cases muscle atrophy occurs and the limb lags of its growth

22
Q

What is involved in the residual stage of teh spinal form of polio?

A

Deformation of the limbs
Disability

23
Q

What is bulbar polio?

A

Sudden onset with fever, vomiting, severe intoxication

9 and 10 CFN involvement often:
Palatal & Pharyngeal weakness (nasal voice)
Pooling of saliva
Poor cough
Nasal regurgitation of saliva
Deviation of palate,uvula,tongue
Hoarseness , Aphonia
Tachycardia, bradycardia, changes in the blood pressure

24
Q

What is involved in the pontine form of spinal polio?

A

Peripheral paresis of n. facialis
There is no intoxication in the most cases
There are no taste changes in the first 2/3 part of the tongue, oozing, hypoacusis

25
Q

What is involved in the mixed form of polio?

A

Ascending paralyses
Death is due to acute respiratory and cardiac failure

26
Q

How do people who have been vaccinated get poliomyelitis?

A

Immunizing at the time of enteral infection
Interference with other
Disrupted immunity due to other causes
Irregular intake of the vaccine
Poor quality vaccine

27
Q

What is VAPP?

A

Post-vaccinal paralytic poliomyelitis

Sluggish paralysis due to vaccinal viruses = Vaccine-derived poliovirus (VDPV)
( since 2000 - Sabin type 1 OPV )

28
Q

How is polio diagnosed?

A
  1. History and epidemiological data
  2. Clinical data
  3. Biochemical indicators - ДКК, liver enzymes, liquor
  4. Virusological diagnosis
    Smears from nose and throat
    Feces
    Blood
    Liquor
  5. Serological diagnosis - 2 samples every 14 days
29
Q

What are some differential diagnosis of polio?

A

Guillain-Barre syndrom
Other viral encephalomyelitis
Tick paralysis
CNS Tumor
Trauma
Vaccine associated paralytic polio

30
Q

What is the treatment of polio?

A
  • Isolation 21 days in poliomyelitis
    Pathogenically – fighting the brain edema, vitamins, protection from other infections

Symptomatically
Rehabilitation in the town of Momin prohod
Treatment of the other syndromes
Etiologically -
PLECONARYL – inhibits viral replication
GAMMA - GLOBULIN

31
Q

What is the prognosis of polio?

A

Determined during 1 month after infection
Some degree of permanent damage
Bulbar paralysis generally recover completely

32
Q

What causes herpangina?

A

Coxakie A virus

33
Q

What are the symptoms of herpangina?

A

Fever, sore throat, weakness
Oral ulcers and vesicles which cause salivation and pain
This clinical form can be in combination with aseptic meningitis

34
Q

What are the symptoms of herpangina?

A

Fever, sore throat, weakness
Oral ulcers and vesicles which cause salivation and pain
This clinical form can be in combination with aseptic meningitis

35
Q

What is pleurodynia?

A

Sudden onset, fever, severe muscle pain with different localization – thorax, abdominal muscles, back muscles, limb muscles

When chest muscle are involved, the patient feels severe pain in breathing, and the last one is superficially, with cyanosis

When abdominal muscles are involved, severe abdominal pain occurs and it has to be differentiate from acute app.

36
Q

What are some non-polio enteroviral infections?

A

Gasterointestinal manifestation:
Vomiting, Non bloody diarrhea, Abdominal pain, Pseudoappendicitis

Respiratory form:
Cosackie A21 is the agent
Fever, headache, muscle pain, tracheitis, bronchitis, laryngitis

Pericarditis&Myocarditis:
High mortality especially in neonate

37
Q

What causes hand-foot-mouth disease?

A

Hand-foot-mouth syndrome:
Coxackie infection
Small intraoral ulcers
Macular or vesicular lesion on hands and feet&buttock

38
Q

What are some other nonpolio-enteroviral infections?

A

Aseptic meningitis syndrome:
Rash,Sore throat, Muscle pain, Sign of meningeal irritation
CSF (PMN pleocytosis,High protein,Normal glucose)

Seasonal Encephalitis:
Fever, headache, vomiting, nuchal rigidity, paralyses of CFN, seizures, psychosis
Spring and summer seasonality

Paralysis like polio:
Agents: Coxackie and ECHO
Fever, muscle paralyses without lasting changes in the limbs
Bulbar form can leads to death

Neonatal myocarditis:
Fever,Tachycardia, Cardiomegaly, ECG changes, Transient systolic murmur, Shock, Respiratory distress

Fulminant encephalomyocarditis

39
Q

How do you diagnose nonpolio enteroviral infections?

A

Age, Season, Location, Exposure
Clinical manifestation
PCR
Culture from sterile sites biopsy

40
Q

How do you treat nonpolio enteroviral infections?

A

Supportive therapy
Pleconaril in immunocompetent
No Steroids
