  1. Typhoid fever John Schmidt

  2. Overview 1 • Causal org: Salmonella enterica, subtype typhi (S. typhi) and S. paratyphi • Transmission: fecal-oral route via contaminated food/water • Common sx: fever, headache, malaise, anorexia/abd pain, >> rose-colored spots, hepatosplenomegaly • Prevention: vaccine • Treatment: antibiotics

  3. Epidemiology • 200-300 US cases/yr 2 • 80% of cases endemic areas 3 • 80% of these from six countries: 4-5 • Mexico, India, the Philippines, Pakistan, El Salvador, and Haiti • US cases from fecal contamination, esp. in kids 4-5

  4. Pathogenesis • SEST enter GIT via ingested food/water (ID >10 3) 6 • Enter Peyer’s patches of SI and reproduce • M-cell of MALT 7 • Direct entry (CFTR)8-9 • Enter bloodstream, eventually settling in macrophages of liver, spleen, and bone marrow 10-11

  5. Symptoms • Initially none6 • 10-20% infection rate • 12-21 day incubation • Early sx: vomiting, constipation = diarrhea, anorexia 8-9 • Late sx: fever, fatigue, hepatosplenomegaly, rash, headache, encephalopathy 10-11

  6. Differential Diagnosis • Bacterial gastroenteritis • Malaria • Amebiasis • Dengue fever • Leishmaniasis

  7. Diagnostic Testing • Culture • Blood: 40-80% sensitive 12 • Stool: 30-40% sensitive 13 • Bone Marrow: >90% sensitive 14 • Serology 15 • Test for anti-O and anti-H antibodies • Titer > 4 is positive, 46-94% sensitive • More useful in non-endemic areas

  8. Complications • Bacterial superinfection (10%)16 • SI rupture (3-10%) 16-17 • Carrier state (1-6%) 18 • + stool >12 mo • ↑ risk in women, colelithiasis • ↑ risk of gallbladder carcinoma (esp. in carrier state) 19

  9. Treatment 20 • Adults • Ciprofloxacin 500mg BID x 7-10 days • RESISTANCE!!! • Ceftriaxone 2-3g qD x 7-14 days • Children • Ceftriaxone100mg/kg IV qD x 10-14 days • Azithromycin 10-20mg/kg qD x 5-7 days • Ciprofloxacin 30mg/kg qD x 7-10 days

  10. Follow up • Labs • Serum culture should be negative • F/U with 3 stool cultures one month apart (carrier state)

  11. Prevention 21 • Oral vaccine

  12. A 19 y/o white female college student is brought into the ED by her roommate after returning from a short-term mission trip to Mexico ten days ago. She did not receive any vaccinations prior to travel. The roommate states she initially was fine, but after a day or so she felt feverish throughout the day and seemed to be getting worse. Both girls, however, were confused because the patient’s temperatures were normal when they checked in the mornings. Yesterday night the patient developed severe abdominal pain and a headache, and when she awoke this morning the roommate states she “was cloudy in the head.” Full history and physical are unobtainable due to the patient’s altered mental status.Vital signs: T 102.5 F, BP 108/62, P 98, RR 18Physical exam significant for MMSE 20/30 and two blanching maculopapular spots on the trunk, each 3cm in diameter.Which of the following is the most likely causal organism for this patient’s condition? • Escherichia coli • Plasmodium falciparum • Rickettsia rickettsii • Salmonella typhus Answer Now
