About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "COMMON CHILDHOOD INFECTIONS AND RASHES" by Sue Lowe.

This medical PowerPoint presentation is about some common childhood infections and rashes including:

Chickenpox: A viral infection that causes a blister-like rash, itching, and fever. It usually starts on the chest, back, and face and spreads to the rest of the body.
Measles: A highly contagious viral infection that causes a rash, fever, cough, and runny nose. The rash usually starts on the face and spreads to the rest of the body.
Rubella (German measles): A viral infection that causes a rash, fever, and swollen glands. The rash usually starts on the face and spreads to the rest of the body.
Fifth disease (erythema infectiosum): A viral infection that causes a "slapped cheek" rash on the face, followed by a lacy rash on the rest of the body.
Roseola (exanthem subitum): A viral infection that causes a high fever followed by a rash on the trunk and limbs.
Hand, foot, and mouth disease: A viral infection that causes a rash on the hands, feet, and mouth, as well as fever and sore throat.
Impetigo: A bacterial infection that causes sores or blisters, often around the mouth and nose, that can spread to other parts of the body.
Scabies: A contagious skin infestation caused by mites that burrow under the skin, causing a rash and intense itching.

It is important to note that these are just a few examples of common childhood infections and rashes, and any rash or illness should be evaluated by a healthcare provider.

COMMON CHILDHOOD INFECTIONS AND RASHES Sue Lowe
Slide 2-

OBJECTIVES Bacterial infections Viral rashes Fungal infections Parasitic infestations Rashes associated with systemic disease Neonatal and congenital rashes Quiz!
Slide 3-

MENINGOCOCCAL SEPTICAEMIA MORTALITY 5-10% (90% if DIC) MORBIDITY 10% (Deafness, neurological problems, amputations) Peak incidence < 4yrs Immunisation programme includes Men C 60% of bacterial meningitis in UK due to Men B
Slide 4-

MENINGOCOCCAL SEPTICAEMIA CLINICAL FEATURES: Fever, non-specific malaise, lethargy, vomiting, meningism, resp distress, irritability, seizures Maculopapular rash common early in disease Petechial rash seen in 50-60%
Slide 5-

MENINGOCOCCAL SEPTICAEMIA MANAGEMENT IN PRIMARY CARE IMMEDIATE IV/IM ANTIBIOTICS Benzylpenicillin 1.2g > 10yrs Benzylpenicillin 600mg 1-9yrs Benzylpenicillin 300mg < 1yr CONTACT PROPHYLAXIS Rifampicin 600mg bd 2/7 > 12yrs Rifampicin 10mg/kg bd 2/7 1-12yrs Rifampicin 5mg/kg bd 2/7 < 1yr

IMPETIGO Staph Aureus or Gp A Strep Pyogenes Classically ruptured vesicles with honey-coloured crusting May be bullous More common in pre-existing skin disease Very contagious, rapid spread Commonly starts around face/mouth Rx. Topical fusidic acid or oral flucloxacillin Advice re nursery/school
Slide 8-

IMPETIGO
Slide 9-

STAPHYLOCOCCAL SCALDED SKIN Caused by Staphylococcal exfoliative toxin Erythematous tender skin, progressing to desquamation after 24-48hrs Nikolsky sign 62% < 2yrs, 98% < 5yrs BCs usually negative in children Usually febrile, may rapidly progress to dehydration/shock Rx. Systemic antistaphylococcal abx., emollients, may need IV fluids
Slide 10-

STAPH SCALDED SKIN
Slide 11-

SCARLET FEVER Gp A beta-haemolytic Strep 2-4 days post-Streptococcal pharyngitis Fever, headache, sore throat, unwell Flushed face with circumoral pallor Rash may extend to whole body Rough ‘sandpaper’ skin Desquamation after 5/7, particularly soles and palms School age children White strawberry tongue Dx. Throat swab, ASO titres Rx. Penicillin 10/7

SCARLET FEVER
Slide 14-

VARICELLA Incubation 14-21 days Mild prodromal illness Rash: Face, scalp, trunk, spreads centrifugally Macules – papules – vesicles – pustules – crusts Complications: encephalitis, pneumonia, superceded Staphylococcal infection, disseminated disease in immunocompromised Advice to pregnant mothers
Slide 15-

MEASLES Unwell child Incubation 7-14 days Fever, conjunctival suffusion, coryza Maculopapular rash starting on face and progressing to whole body Koplik’s spots are pathognomonic Complications: Otitis media, pneumonia, hepatitis, myocarditis, encephalomyelitis, SSPE
Slide 16-

MEASLES
Slide 17-

MUMPS Incubation 14-21 days, infectious for 1 week after parotid swelling develops Painful salivary gland in 2/3 Bilat or unilat May be parotid (60%) or parotid and submandibular (10%) Complications: Encephalitis, transient deafness, epididymo-orchitis, pancreatitis, myocarditis
