H. 1950 ~ 1964年在田纳西州纳什维尔对86例流感脑膜炎患者进行了研究,这些患者在急性发作期间接受了可接受的抗生素治疗。随访显示,11人死亡(8人在住院后24小时内死亡)。 其中五十六人返回范德比尔特医学中心进行以下评估:病史、一般体格和神经系统检查;纯音测听评估;韦氏儿童智力量表心理测试。另有19个国家通过调查问卷提供了资料。 结果表明,26(29%)的幸存者有严重或显着的障碍; 12(14%)有可能残留;和37(43%)是免费的检测缺陷。 结论是,预防这种疾病现在应该是一个首要目标。
The long-term effects of H. influenzae meningitis were studied in 86 patients who were treated with acceptable antibiotic therapy during acute episode in 1950 to 1964 in Nashville, Tennessee. Follow-up revealed that 11 were dead (eight died within first 24 hours of hospitalization). Fifty-six of them returned to Vanderbilt Medical Center for the following appraisals: history, general physical and neurological examinations; pure tone audiometry evaluation; and psychological testing by Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children. Nineteen others sent information by questionnaire. Results indicated that 26 (29%) survivors had severe or significant handicaps; 12 (14%) had possible residuals; and 37 (43%) were free of detectable deficits. It was concluded that prevention of this disease should now be a prime goal.
