[Tetanus Observation Over a 12-Month Period in Conakry, Guinea].
The objective of this study was to determine the factors associated with death in patients hospitalized for tetanus. This study collected prospectively over a twelve (12) month period, the epidemiological, clinical and evolutionary data, and proceeded to an analysis of the factors associated with the death of hospitalized patients. We collected 32 patients with tetanus, or 5% of the total number of hospitalized patients. The average age was 36 ± 14 years. The sex ratio was 15 (30/2). The iatrogenic entrance door was found in 5 (15%) patients. Respiratory complications were the most frequent, ie 9 cases (28%). The most commonly used treatment regimen (28 cases, 88%) was the combination of metronidazole, diazepam, and anti-tetanus serum with an average hospital stay of 23 days. A Dakar prognostic score greater than or equal to 3, the presence of complications and a hospital stay of less than or equal to 7 days were the main factors associated with the death. Tetanus remains common in Guinea with a high lethality rate. Improving immunization coverage is imperative.
期刊介绍:
Le Bulletin de la Société de pathologie exotique et la société savante (SPE) dont il est la vitrine ont été créés en 1908 par Alphonse Laveran. Destiné, dans un premier temps, à servir de support à la publication des travaux des sociétaires présentés en séance sous forme de communication ou de mémoire, ce périodique est devenu, au fil du temps, une revue internationale francophone multidisciplinaire, ouverte à tous les médecins, vétérinaires, anthropologues et chercheurs travaillant dans le domaine de la médecine tropicale humaine et animale et de la santé publique dans les pays en voie de développement.
