Слайд 2Undifferentiated diagnosis of meningitis is set on the basis of
combination of next syndromes : meningeal, syndrome of infectious disease,
changes of neurolymph.
A meningeal syndrome consists of 1) general cerebral and 2) meningeal symptoms.
General cerebral symptoms:
very intensive, painful headache of holding apart diffuse character,
vomiting, quite often without preceding nausea and relief;
psychomotor agitation at severe duration,
delirium, hallucinations,
cramps, flabbiness and disorders of consciousness (stupor, sopor, coma).
Слайд 32. Actually meningealе symptoms can be divided into 4 groups.
1-
group is general hyperesthesia:
increased sensitiveness to the irritants of sense-organs:
photophobia, hyperacusia, skin hyperesthesia.
2- group of muscular tonic tensions:
rigidity of cervical muscles,
Kernig’s symptom,
Brudzinsky’s symptoms (upper, middle and lower).
Слайд 4rigidity of long muscles of back; patient is bent back
and can not flex forward (the pose of patient is
characteristic: a head is thrown back, a trunk is maximally unbended, feet are flexed to the stomach, a stomach is pulled in)
new-born and infants have Lessage’s symptom («suspension»), tension and thrusting out of prefontanel (intracraneal hypertension).
it is necessary to differentiate false rigidity of muscles from pain (myositis, radiculitis etc.): at slow and smooth bending of head rigidity of cervical muscles is not marked but appears at the rapid and intensive bending of head as a result of pain reaction.
Слайд 53-group of reactive pain phenomena. Tenderness at
pressing on :
eyeballs,
places of exit on face of branches of trifacial,
places
of exit of large cervical nerves (points of Kerer);
on the front wall of acoustic duct (symptom of Mendel);
strengthening of headache and pain grimace at percussion of zygomatic arcs and skull.
4-group of change of abdominal, periosteal and tendon reflexes :
in the start their revival and then decline.
Слайд 6At meningitises the signs of encephalitis or myelities are revealed
quite often, diagnostics and estimation of symptoms of encephalitis must
be conducted with participation a neurologist.
At meningitises (meningoencephalitis) the row of syndromes and symptoms characteristic for infectious diseases are revealed :
general intoxication,
fever,
exanthema and enanthema,
lymphadenopathy,
increase of liver and spleen,
change of functions of different organs and systems.
Слайд 7Research of neurolymph (CSF) is needed for confirmation of diagnosis
of meningitis.
Indication for spinal puncture is appearance of meningeal
symptoms.
Normal CSF :
transparent and colourless,
at a lumbar puncture pressure is 100-200 mm H2O (0,98-0,96 кPа),
lymphocytes (2-10) х 106/л,
protein 0,23-0,33 g/l,
chlorides 120-130 mmol/l,
sugar 0,42-0,6 g/l (not below 50% from level in the serum of blood).
Слайд 8A meningism is the state of presence of clinical and
general cerebral meningealой symptomatology without the inflammatory changes of CSF
with increased pressure.
The clinical signs of meningism are not caused by inflammation of brain-tunics but accompined by toxic irritation and increase of intracraneal pressure.
It can be observed at flu, quinsy, typhoid and other illnesses.
It more often meets at children in the acute period of illness and as a rule lasts no more than 1-3 days.
After spinal puncture the state of patients gets better quickly and meningeal signs disappear soon.
A meningism can preced to inflammation of meninxes.
If the meningealе phenomena do not disappear and grow it is necessary to do repeated diagnostic spinal puncture.
Слайд 9Depending on indexes of CSF meningitises and meningoencephalitis can be
serosal or purulent.
Serosal CSF is transparent or opalescent with moderate
pleocytosis (from a few tens to a few hundreds cells in 1 mm3, mainly lymphocytes).
Purulent CSF is turbid with high neutrophilic pleocytosis and increased maintenance of albumen.
Serosal meningitis can be viral or bacterial etiology, primary or secondary.
Serosal meningitises viral etiology without damages of internalss are primary.
Diseases with the damage of nervous system and other organs and systems behave to the secondary serosal meningitis and meningoencephalitis.

organs and systems.
Most actual due to frequency and severity are
caused by meningococcus, pneumococcus and Haemophilus influenzae.
Meningococcal meningitis (meningoencephalitis).
Up to 80-90% from all purulent meningitises.
More often at children and in young age, winter-spring seasonality, in 1-2 months after forming of collective.

of patient appears.
Cranial nerves (more often VII, III, IV and VI pair) can be damaged.
On the 1-2 day at youth the signs of edema-swelling of cerebrum grow: psychomotor agitation, sopor and coma.
Signs of encephalitis develops at 1-1,5% of patients on background of general cerebral symptomatology, focal cerebral symptomatology grows more often as pyramid insufficiency: central paresis of mimic musculature, damage of cranial nerves.
At late diagnostics and wrong treatment forming of syndrome of ependimatitis or ventriculitis is possible.
Edema-swelling of cerebrum (at 6,5%) combines with shock and/or meningococcaemia.

Traumas
of skull and respiratory diseases assist start of disease.
Pneumonia, tracheobronchitis, otitis can preced to meningitis or arising up simultaneously.
Clinically similar with meningococcal.
Слайд 48Often (to 80%) damage of tissues of brain withous signs

At intensifying of chronic otitis and sinuitis :
headache quite often appears long before inflammation of menings. A temperature is subfebrile more often, meningeal symptoms show up not always identically.
Rigidity of neck muscles is revealed later.
Sometimes focal symptoms appear.
Слайд 54CSF and peripheral blood is changed like at other purulent
meningitises.
Recrudescent purulent meningitises are observed at:
torpid osteomyelitis of temporal
bone,
abscess of the apex of pyramid,
liquorrhea
Слайд 55Secondary septic purulent meningitis and meningoencephalitis.
At the sepsis of
different etiology, more often on the 5-10th day from the
start of sepsis.
Presence of primary and secondary purulent foci.
Cerebral abscesses or thromboses of cerebral vessels can develop.
CSF is purulent yellow with high neutrophilic cytosis - (1500-3000) х 106/l, increased maintenance of albumen (2-12 g/l), low maintenance of sugar.
Diagnostics is bacteriological.
Слайд 56Purulent meningitises caused by Gram-negative bacteria meet more rarely and
are possible on a background the septic state.
Anthrax meningitis.
It develops
rarely on a background the generalized form of anthrax.
It develops with lightning speed with disorders of consciousness (sopor, coma), tonic, clonic and generalized cramps. CSF is purulent or purulent-blood.
Diagnostics bases on anamnesis and bacteriology(from CSF, blood, sputum).
Слайд 57Meningitis and meningoencephalitis caused by funguses and protozoo.
Gradual start.
The
isolated damages of CNS is absent, damage of other organs
and systems presents on a background an immunodeficiency.
Candida meningitis.
Damages of mucous membranes and skin and also at septic forms of candidiasis.
After the protracted use of antibiotics, steroid hormones, immunodepressants.
Слайд 58Reminds tubercular meningitis.
CSF at the start has serosal character with
lymphocytic pleocytosis (300-1500) х106/l; then CSF becomes purulent.
Aspergilla meningoencephalitis.
Slow development
on a background of pulmonary aspergillosis or damage of ENT-organs, eyes, bones of skull or generalisation of process.
Anamnesis – workers of textile and weaving enterprises.
There are shallow granulosums (0,6-0,9 mm) in the pia mater containing funguss, and abscesses in the substance of brain.
Слайд 59CSF has moderate cytosis 30 - 300 х 106/l (at
the protracted duration up to 600) with predominance of neutrophils
(50-60%), maintenance of albumen is increased (2-6 g/l);
Xanthochromia or admixture of blood in CSF.
Subdural abscesses and haematomas in area of basal skull.
Coccidioidomycosis, blastomycosis, nocardiosis, histoplasmosis meningitises, encephalitises and meningoencephalitises also develop on a background the acute or chronic forms of the disseminated process.
For differential diagnostics US, CT, NT, angiography and other are used
