Q

Pathophysiology of Acute Bacterial Meningitis

A

Pathophysiology:

  1. Breach of the CNS either by haematogenous spread (most common) or trauma
  2. Bacteria multiple once they enter subarachnoid space
  3. Bacteria in CSF induce inflammatory cascade and leukocyte migration
  4. Results in cerebral oedema, raised ICP and neurological damage
  5. Can lead to Septic shock, DIC, renal and heart failure

Definition and epidemiology of Bronchiolitis

A

Bronchiolitis:

Definition:

• Acute viral infection of the LRT characterised by obstruction of the small airways with air trapping

Epidemiology:

  • < 2 years of age (most severe 1-2 months), leading cause of hospital admissions in this age group
  • Uncommon in children < 1month or >2 years - Almost exclusively an infantile disease
  • Seasonal – mainly winter

Risk factors for Bronchiolitis

A

Risk factors:

  • < 3 years – lungs and immune system have not developed fully
  • Winter months
  • Premature birth - impaired lungs and immune system
  • Underlying heart or lung condition - E.g. CF or congenital heart disease
  • Passive smoking
  • Infants with older siblings – bring the infection home

Q

Aetiology and Pathophysiology of Bronchiolitis

A

Aetiology:

  • RSV is the most common cause (>50%)
  • Others: Parainfluenza virus and adenovirus

Pathophysiology:

  1. Virus infection of the respiratory epithelial cells causing necrosis, inflammation, oedema and mucous secretion/plugging
  2. Cellular destruction and inflammation leads to obstruction of the small airways
  3. Results in hyperinflation, cilia dysfunction, atelectasis and wheezing
  4. Re-growth of the epithelial cell layers does not occur until ~ 2 weeks post infection

Clinical features of Bronchiolitis

A

Clinical Features:

  • Prodrome of 1-3 days of irritating cough, nasal congestion and rhinorrhoea
  • Wheezing – due to airway narrowing with mucus and necrotic debris
  • Fluctuating clinical findings – Hallmark of bronchiolitis
  • ↑ WOB – Tachypnoea + grunting, nasal flaring, subcostal retraction (common)
  • Fever > 38.5°C
  • Apnoea may be presenting feature, especially in very young or premature or low birth weight infants (uncommon)
  • Worst day 3-4

Q

Investigations, management and prognosis of Bronchiolitis

A

Investigations:

• Clinical

Rx:

  • Supportive
  • Hospitalise with respiratory distress
  • Donʼt use steroids

Prognosis:

  • Most cases are mild and self-limiting (3-10 days)
  • Most get better in 2-3weeks (when resp. epithelium regenerates)
  • Only 1% require hospitalisation

A

Laryngotracheobronchitis (croup)

Definition:

• Viral infection of the upper airways characterised by sudden onset seal-like barking cough, stridor, voice hoarseness and respiratory distress

Epidemiology:

  • Most common cause of stridor in children 3 months – 5years
  • Winter months

Aetiology and pathophysiology of laryngotracheobronchitis (croup)

A

Aetiology:

  • Parainfluenza virus (1 or 3)
  • RSV (common < 6 months + wheeze)
  • Others: Adenovirus, Influenza A or B, Coronavirus

Pathophysiology:

  • Upper airways obstruction caused by generalised inflammation and oedema of the airways
  • Cellular level, necrosis and shedding of the epithelium
  • Narrowed & subglottic inflammation is responsible for the seal-like barky cough and stridor
  • If upper airways obstruction worsens it can lead to respiratory failure
