Diagnosis: consider mimics of GBS Acute myelopathy: corticospinal tract findings, back pain Vasculitic neuropathy: Systemic symptoms, pain, asymmetry Thiamine deficiency: Alcohol abuse, s/p bariatric surgery West Nile poliomyelitis: lower motor neuron, fever, meningitis, pleocytosis Lyme neuroborreliosis: polyradiculitis, rash, systemic symptoms Tick paralysis: children, pure motor (low CMAPs) Botulism: oculobulbar, motor, nausea/vomiting/constipation Acute intermittent porphyria: GI symptoms, autonomic crisis Heavy metals, acute: systemic, GI symptoms, skin Organophosphates: insecticide exposure, cramps, axonopathy n-Hexane: glue- and gasoline-sniffers Poliomyelitis: lower motor neuron, fever, meningitis, pleocytosis Buckthorn toxin: berries of buckthorn shrub, 1-3 weeks later; SW US CMV polyradiculopathy: advanced AIDS, pleocytosis Diphtheria: 2-3 months after pharyngitis Marine toxins: pufferfish, shellfish Seminars Neurol 2008;28:152-167
Slide 15-

Diagnosis: CSF in GBS CSF protein – abnormal initially in ~ 60% Don’t let normal CSF during first week dissuade you from treating early After first week, protein is almost always elevated > 90% “in fully developed illness” Few WBC’s (<10) Ropper AH, NEJM 1992;326:1130-1136; Al-Shekhlee et al, Muscle Nerve 2005;32:66-72.
Slide 16-

Diagnosis: EDX in early GBS Frequently abnormal: H – reflex, F – waves, low distal CMAP amplitude, dispersion of CMAP, prolonged distal latencies “Sural sparing” pattern on sensory NCS Often normal in early GBS: Conduction block and temporal dispersion on motor NCS Non-uniform slowing on motor NCS Gordon PH, Wilbourn AJ.

Outline Overview of Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) Influenza vaccine and GBS VAERS
Slide 25-

Epidemiology of GBS Background incidence: Annual incidence of GBS is 1 – 1.5 per 100,000 Higher incidence in elderly (e.g. 4 per 100,000 in those 75 years and older) Lower incidence in children Thus, background monthly incidence of ~ 1 per million GBS in the US: US population: 308 million In the US, ~ a dozen new cases of GBS each day
Slide 26-

GBS following influenza vaccination? 1976 Swine flu vaccination: number of GBS cases appeared to be in excess of background incidence 1976 vaccination: Relative Risk of GBS among vaccinees – 8 1 excess case of GBS / 100,000 vaccine recipients Within 6 weeks of vaccine; peak at 2-3 weeks Arch Intern Med 2006;166:2217-2221. JAMA 2004;292:2478-2481. Arch Intern Med 2006;166:1301-1304. NEJM 1998;339:1797-1802. Am J Epid 2009;169:382-388. JID 2009;200:321-328
Slide 27-

After 1976… 1992-1993 and 1993-1994 seasonal influenza: perhaps one excess case per million adult vaccines Other studies have failed to demonstrate an increase of GBS following influenza vaccination US Army, 5.6 million, 1980-1988 UK General Practice Research Database, 1990-2005 Some studies suggest a decreased risk of GBS Decrease in GBS cases reported: VAERS, 1990-2003 - 1.7/million in 1993-1994 to 0.4/million in 2002-2003 Arch Intern Med 2006;166:2217-2221. JAMA 2004;292:2478-2481. Arch Intern Med 2006;166:1301-1304. NEJM 1998;339:1797-1802. Am J Epid 2009;169:382-388. JID 2009;200:321-328

...So Why The Concern?? Partial “swine” origin of 2009 A/H1N1 virus—first since 1976 Could vaccine against 2009 H1N1 virus lead to similar increased GBS risk? Improvements in influenza vaccine manufacturing 2009 H1N1 vaccine manufactured the same as seasonal flu vaccine Surveillance being conducted out of “abundance of caution”
Slide 30-

Outline Overview of Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) Influenza vaccine and GBS VAERS
Slide 31-

VAERS: Background US postlicensure vaccine safety surveillance Receives voluntary reports of adverse events following immunization Co-managed by CDC and FDA Receives ~23,000 reports per year (2005-2008 average) Data publicly available Healthcare providers are encouraged to report clinically significant adverse events after vaccination Anyone can submit a report to VAERS
Slide 32-

VAERS Strengths Can detect very rare adverse events Generates hypotheses Helps identify new and/or rare adverse events following immunization Helps determine if further investigations are needed Monitors trends of previously reported adverse events Monitors vaccine lot safety
Slide 33-

VAERS Limitations Passive surveillance; therefore, risk of underreporting Stimulated reporting due to media attention Possibly incomplete and inaccurate data on report form Lack of availability of denominator data No information on number of persons vaccinated VAERS generally cannot determine if an adverse event was coincidental or caused by a vaccine
Slide 34-

VAERS “Non-Serious” Reports* 92% of VAERS reports are “non-serious” Most frequent adverse events** Local reactions Fever Rashes or itching Headache Dizziness * Data from 91,669 VAERS reports received during 2005 through 2008 ** A vaccinee may have had more than one adverse event listed in the report
Slide 35-

VAERS definition of “Serious” Reports Death Life-threatening illness Hospitalization Prolonged existing hospitalization Persistent or significant disability Certain other medically important conditions *Code of Federal Regulations Title 21 (21CFR 314.80) From VAERS form
Slide 36-

What to Report Report any clinically significant adverse event following immunization (www.vaers.hhs.gov) Adverse event of concern to the healthcare provider or vaccinee/caregiver or other VAERS reporter The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 mandates that healthcare providers report specific adverse events that occur after immunization for some vaccines.* *The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act does not apply to 2009 H1N1 vaccines

How to find it

ppt slide no 38 content not found
Slide 39-

Form, if faxing
Slide 40-

Remember, report all cases regardless of whether cause-and-effect is suspected
Slide 41-

VAERS Follow-up Follow-up conducted for reports of serious adverse events or for vaccines/adverse events designated for enhanced surveillance Letter sent to reporters to check recovery status for all reports with “no” or “unknown” recovery listed on initial VAERS form (60 days and 1 year)
Slide 42-

Analysis of 2009 H1N1 VAERS reports CDC and FDA have primary responsibility for analysis Assess for signals for new or unexpected adverse events of concern Review individual reports for serious adverse events Additional information available from follow-up medical records and autopsy reports
Slide 43-

Emerging Infections Program CDC is engaging in active surveillance for GBS in 10 Emerging Infections Program (EIP) states Collecting ALL new GBS cases, regardless of previous vaccination Surveillance Officers for each of the 10 EIP areas of surveillance will be in contact with neurologists in those areas Physicians are strongly encouraged to take these calls/read these emails Some states may have additional mandated reporting requirements Your EIP Surveillance Officer will advise you on your local reporting requirements * Metro areas only ^ all state except NYC California Colorado* Connecticut Georgia* Maryland Minnesota New Mexico New York^ Oregon* Tennessee
Slide 44-

Neurologists in EIP Sites Few, time-limited tasks that are being requested from neurologists participating in the EIP reporting system Each practice should identify a point of contact (POC) within their practice (either themselves, a practice manager or nurse manager) If they have not already heard from your POC, EIP sites will be contacting that POC weekly to confirm that no new GBS cases have been diagnosed You might be asked to answer a few brief follow-up or clarification questions on cases reported
