Part 3: Leptospirosis

 Many of the infections that we currently consider “tropical” were once endemic in the more temperate climates of developed countries o Successfully eradicated with a combination of public health, good sanitation and hygiene, and accessible medications  But many of these infections that we consider “tropical” are mainly found in developing countries, which is more a result of economics than it is of climate.

Paracoccidioidomycosis

Other drugs like steroids that may predispose them to have fungal infections Mefloquine (malaria chemoprophylaxis) causes psychiatric side effects if taken for more than 3 months [2013B]

 Suggestive objective signs: o o o o

Calf muscle tenderness  leptospirosis Petechial rashes  dengue Hepatosplenomegaly  malaria Hepatosplenomegaly, maculopapular rash  typhoid fever [2014B]

DENGUE     

Case # 1: 18 year old, female, student Continuous fever for 5 days, highest temperature at 40oC, with headache and muscle pains No cough, epigastric pain, vomiting Took erythromycin and paracetamol with no relief Consulted a physician two days ago

Page |

CBC: Hgb=125; Hct=0.37; WBC=6.7, with 0.72 neutrophils; Platelet count = 205,000 o Advised to continue hydration and paracetamol, with next follow-up after 2 days, if fever remains persistent  Few hours PTA, with persistently high-grade fever, she had gum bleeding  On PE, appears ill-looking o T=39.6oC, HR=110/min, RR=22/min, BP=90/60 mmHg o No tonsillopharyngeal congestion or cervical lymphadenopathy o C/L and heart findings are unremarkable o Abdomen is flat, with slight direct epigastric tenderness; no hepatosplenomegaly o No rashes or edema on extremities o Tourniquet test is negative o

Question: What is the most likely cause of the patient’s fever? A. Virus B. Bacteria C. Parasite D. Fungus [2013B]  Does patient have sepsis? Yes  decreased blood pressure, tachycardia, fever  High grade fever: VIRAL o 10 diagnosis: viral o WBC is normal although typhoid fever may also present with normal WBC; see also the clinical history and physical exam o Fever is high grade at onset for viral; typhoid fever starts with low-grade fever

Complete Blood Count was requested:  Hgb=13.9, Hct=0.40, WBC=2.3 with neutrophils  Platelet count=70,000

67%

Question: At this point, what interventions would you institute? A. Administer a broad-spectrum antibiotic B. Transfuse blood components, including whole blood and platelets C. Serial blood count determinations, to include hematocrit and platelet count D. Initiate intravenous hydration incorporated with parenteral multivitamins NOTE (2013B): Do not choose the answer with the vitamins because vitamins do not have any use in acute infection!

Diagnosis: DENGUE FEVER

Question: At this point, what interventions would you institute? A. Administer a broad-spectrum antibiotic B. Transfuse blood components, including whole blood and platelets C. Serial blood count determinations, to include hematocrit and platelet count D. Initiate intravenous hydration incorporated with parenteral multivitamins NOTE (2013B): Continue serial blood count determinations because during this time, when patient is afebrile, hemoconcentration and increase in platelet count happen; resolution of petechial rashes.

Course:  During her stay, serial blood count determinations were continued o Increasing platelet count levels noted on subsequent days  No signs or episodes of bleeding reported  Increased number of petechial rashes observed on the extremities

Case # 1: Issues  Dengue infection o Pathophysiologic mechanisms and clinical manifestations o Risk factors for susceptibility to infection and its complications o Diagnosis o Therapeutic interventions

DENGUE VIRUS  Family: Flaviviridae  Genus: Flavivirus  Enveloped, single-stranded, positive sense RNA virus  Four serotypes: DENV -1, -2, -3, -4 o Serotype 1 – South America o Serotype 2 – most frequent strain causing severe dengue

o Serotype 4 – South Africa [2013B]  Vector: Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus

TRANSMISSION OF DENGUE VIRUS BY AEDES AEGYPTI

Course:  Repeat CBC the following day

JMA-1, JMA-2, Telma Amit Page | 2

Homologous Antibodies form Non-infectious Complexes

Figure 1. [2013B]  Mosquito will first bite an infected man. During this time, there will be continuing growth and viremia in the mosquito and the mosquito will subsequently transfer it to a susceptible individual. The individual will develop viremia, and 1-2 weeks later, the patient will have fever, along with other non-specific signs and symptoms.  Mosquito is low-flying: 300m distance

Figure 2. Dengue 1 virus will attach to the neutralizing antibody. This leads to primary dengue infection.

DENGUE INFECTIONS: DF (DENGUE FEVER)/DHF (DENGUE HEMORRHAGIC FEVER) Hyperendemicity

Figure 3. Antibody Dependent Enhancement Increased circulation of viruses Increased probability of secondary infection [2013B]: Reinfection with a different strain or serotype. Immune antibody will be enhanced (non-neutralizing antibody to Dengue 1 virus to which the Dengue 2 virus will attach Increased probability of occurrence of virulent strains Increased probability of immune enhancement itself). [Harrison’s]: Previous infection with a heterologous dengue-virus serotype may result in production of non-protective anti-viral antibodies that bind to virion’s surface and through interaction w/ Fc receptor focus secondary dengue viruses on target cell, the result being enhanced infection. The host is also primed for a secondary antibody response when viral antigens are released and immune complexes lead to activation of the classic complement pathway, with consequent phlogistic effects. Cross-reactivity at the T cell level results in the release of physiologically active cytokines, including interferon γ and tumor necrosis factor α.

Increased probability of DHF

DENGUE HEMORRHAGIC FEVER/DENGUE SHOCK SYNDROME [Harrison’s]  Occurs against a background of previous exposure to another dengue-virus serotype; second infection w/ a serotype of dengue virus diff. from primary infection  DHF w/ severe shock  Transient heterotypic protection after dengue virus infection is replaced within several weeks by potential for heterotypic infection resulting in typical DF or uncommonly, in enhanced disease (2o DHF/DSS). In rare instances, 1o dengue infections lead to HF syndrome

MECHANISM OF INFECTION JMA-1, JMA-2, Telma Amit Page | 3

Heterologous Complexes Enter Monocytes, Where Virus Replicates

More

Figure 4. Macrophage/monocyte infection is central to pathogenesis of DF and origin of DHF/DSS [Harrison’s]. Heterologous complexes enter more monocytes, where virus replicates [2013B]. Infected

monocytes release vasoactive mediators, resulting in increased vascular permeability and hemorrhagic manifestations that characterize DHF and DSS. Remember: Secondary infections are more severe. Serotype 2 is the most frequent strain causing a more severe disease. [2013B]

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY CAPILLARY LEAK SYNDROME  Transient increased capillary permeability due to endothelial cell dysfunction – hemoconcentration  Widening of tight junctions  Cytokine release and complement activation

LEUKOPENIA, THROMBOCYTOPENIA AND HEMORRHAGIC DIASTHESIS  Direct viral bone marrow suppression  Platelet destruction (due to immune complex generation)  that’s why platelet concentrate is being transfused [2013B]

 Molecular mimicry between viral protein and coagulation factors.  Bleeding occurs primarily because of derangement in coagulation and not because of thrombocytopenia. [2013B]

Figure 6. Course of Illness

1. FEBRILE PHASE  Usually lasts 2-7 days  Monitoring for defervescence and warning signs are crucial to recognise the progression to the critical phase  Defervescence occurs on day 3-7 of illness o When the temperature drops to 37.5-38oC or less and remains below this level

2. CRITICAL PHASE  Around the time of defervescence, patients can either improve or deteriorate  Those who improve after defervescence have dengue without warning signs  Those who deteriorate will manifest warning signs: dengue with warning signs

Warning Signs  Warning signs are the result of a significant increase in capillary permeability  Marks the beginning of the critical phase Table. Warning Signs Clinical

COURSE OF ILLNESS

Laboratory

     

Abdominal pain or tenderness Persistent vomiting Clinical fluid accumulation Mucosal bleed Lethargy, restlessness Liver enlargement >2cm Increase in HCT concurrent with rapid decrease in platelet count

 May deteriorate to severe dengue infection with signs of: o Severe plasma leakage leading to shock (dengue shock) ± respiratory distress JMA-1, JMA-2, Telma Amit Page | 4

o Severe bleeding and/or o Severe organ impairment  The period of clinically significant plasma leakage usually lasts 24 to 48 hours  give extensive hydration

3. RECOVERY PHASE  Gradual reabsorption of extravascular compartment fluid in the next 48-72 hours  General well-being improves, hemodynamic status stabilizes, diuresis ensues  Classical rash of “isles of white in the sea of red” = Herman’s rash  HCT stabilizes or may be lower due to the dilution effect of reabsorbed fluid  WBC usually starts to rise o Recovery of platelet count is typically later than that of WBC

SUMMARY OF CLINICAL PROBLEMS Febrile phase  Dehydration  High fever may cause neurological disturbance and seizures in children Critical Phase  Shock from plasma leakage  Severe hemorrhage  Organ impairment Recovery Phase  Hypervolemia (only if IV therapy has been excessive or has extended into this period)

OLD WHO DENGUE CLASSIFICATION/SEVERITY Grade 1

INTERPRETATION OF DENGUE DIAGNOSTIC TESTS [Adapted from Dengue and Control (DENCO) Study]

Highly Suggestive One of the following: 1. IgM (+) in a single serum sample 2. IgG (+) in a single serum sample with a HI titer of ≥ 1280

Figure 7. Comparison of diagnostic tests according to their accessibility and confidence [2013B]  Isolation: best but not available  NSI DETECTION: detects dengue at onset of febrile phase in children o Highly sensitive for children, poorly accurate among adult patients

DIAGNOSTIC TESTS: EARLY DIAGNOSIS

TOURNIQUET TEST: HOW USEFUL IS IT? 

 Gold standard, serotype identification  Whole blood, serum, tissues  Results in 1-2 weeks



 Sensitivity of 80-100% (vs. virus isolation)  Tissues, whole blood, serum, plasma  Results in 1-2 days; equipment

Results: Sphygmomanometer method o Sensitivity of 41.6% o Specificity of 94.4% o Test differentiated poorly between dengue hemorrhagic fever (45% positive) and dengue fever (38% positive) Simple elastic tourniquet was less sensitive than sphygmomanometer cuff o Other evidence of bleeding was frequently present and the tourniquet test provided additional information to aid diagnosis in only 5% of cases

 Not useful in adults [2013B]  Detection of non-structural protein 1 in both primary and secondary dengue of all serotypes  Sensitivity 91.6% & specificity 100%  Specimen: serum



Results in 1 day

DIAGNOSTIC TESTS: LATE DIAGNOSIS JMA-1, JMA-2, Telma Amit Page | 6

Confirmed One of the following: 1. PCR (+) 2. Virus culture (+) 3. IgM seroconversion in paired sera 4. IgG seroconversion in paired sera or four-fold IgG titer increase in paired sera

PREVENTIVE TRANSFUSION IN DHF  



Source: Santos JA. Evidence-Based Guidelines on Dengue Fever/DHF 2008

No RCT’s or systematic reviews In DSS patients o FFP (Fresh Frozen Plasma) and PC (Plasma Concentrate) w/o sustained improvements in the coagulation status during plasma leakage phase of DHF/DSS o Those who were not transfused did not manifest severe bleeding when shock was adequately managed. o Improvement in platelet counts, PT and PTT after transfusions lasted < 5 hours. No difference in the frequency of bleeding was observed comparing patients who received



and those who did not receive platelet transfusion (Even in those with platelet count < 25,000/mm3) Studies on platelet levels in DF/DHF: platelet levels do not correlate directly with bleeding.

INTERVENTIONS WHICH ARE NOT RECOMMENDED IN DHF/DSS Source: Santos JA. Evidence-Based Guidelines on Dengue Fever/DHF 2008

Interven tion Steroids

Vitamin C Antihista mines Vitamin K Albumin

Systematic Reviews Use has not been shown to have any benefit in DSS (2 RCT’s : methylprednisolone & hydrocortisone vs. placebo) Not recommended No documented role in the management of DF/ DHF No role in the treatment of DHF No systematic review or published RCT’s on the effects of albumin in the treatment of DHF/DSS

Clinical  No fever for 24 – 48 hours  Improvement in clinical status (general well-being, appetite, haemodynamic status, urine output, no respiratory distress) Laborat  Increasing trend of platelet count (usually ory preceded by rising WBC)  Stable hematocrit without intravenous fluids

PROGNOSIS  Depends on prevention and early recognition and treatment of shock o CFR: 2.5-5% o

When shock sets in → 12-44%

PREVENTION  4S Campaign: o Search and destroy o Self-protection measures o Seek early consultation o Say “NO” to indiscriminate fogging  Key to control of both DF and DHF/DSS is the control of A. aegypti

 Live attenuated dengue vaccines are in late stages of development [Harrisons]
