In the past year, ten infants have been admitted to hospital with a new or previously unrecognised disorder, characterised by an acute onset of encephalopathy, fever, shock, watery diarrhoea, severe disseminated intravascular coagulation, and renal and hepatic dysfunction. Seven of the infants died. No specific causative agent has been identified, but preliminary studies suggest that the pathophysiology of the disease may involve release of proteolytic enzymes (such as trypsin) into the circulation, with destruction of the microcirculation.
