Caracteristicas clinicas y microbiológicas de pacientes pediátricos hospitalizados por neumonia neumococica antes y después de la introducción de las vacunas conjugadas neumocócicas
The clinical and microbiological characteristics of pneumococcal pneumonia in children hospitalized in Lima were analyzed, before and after the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV). We reviewed cases that occurred between 2006-2019, in the pre-PCV7 (2006-2008), post-PCV7 (2009-2011) and post-PCV13 (2016-2019) periods. Of 128 patients with positive cultures (92 blood and 36 pleural fluid), most were infants in the pre-PCV7 (77.1%)…
Detección de Streptococcus pneumoniae en líquidos estériles mediante una PCR en tiempo real (qPCR) en pacientes hospitalizados con sospecha de enfermedad neumocócica invasiva
The standard for diagnosing invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) is to isolate pneumococcus in culture. However, the etiological agent cannot be identified in some patients, especially those who received empirical antibiotic therapy. This study aimed to detect pneumococcus in normally sterile fluids by qPCR in patients with suspected IPD hospitalized in Lima. qPCR had a detection limit of 1.2 x 101 genome copies/uL. Of the 71 clinical samples (51 …
Recommendations for modernizing infant vaccination schedules with combination vaccines in Colombia and Peru
The objective of this article was to consider the vaccination challenges in Colombia and Peru and the role of pediatric combination vaccines in overcoming these challenges. Barriers to including new vaccines with more antigens remain apparent in parts of these countries, where vaccine-preventable diseases in infants continue to be a major problem. The challenges include the heterogeneity of vaccine coverage within each country and in neighboring …
Resistencia antibiótica y distribución de serotipos en cepas neumocócicas invasivas en adultos hospitalizados en Lima, Perú
Pneumococcus is an important pathogen in adults, particularly in older adults, owing to its high mortality rate
Características epidemiológicas, clínicas y bacteriológicas de meningitis neumocócica en pacientes pediátricos de Lima, Perú
Pneumococcal meningitis continues to be a lethal disease, especially in children less than 2 years of age. Since almost two third of lethal cases lead to death within the first 48 hours, prompt diagnosis and management is critical, as well as assurance of immunization with pneumococcal vaccine
Frecuencia de hepatitis A en niños y adolescentes de cinco ciudades del Perú
In order to determine the frequency of hepatitis A in children and adolescents in the cities of Lima, Arequipa, Piura, Cajamarca and Iquitos, a descriptive cross-sectional study which measured serum anti-hepatitis A antibodies from 1,721 children and adolescents aged 1-15 years was performed. The overall frequency of positive serology was 50.5% (95% CI: 48.1 to 52.9), with lower rates for Lima at 37.4% (95% CI: 35.1 to 39.8) and higher rates for …
Resistencia antibiótica de Streptococcus pneumoniae en portadores nasofaríngeos sanos de siete regiones del Perú
High levels of resistance found to penicillin, co-trimoxasole and macrolides in isolated pneumococcus strains of healthy carriers in all studied regions, and their association to a previous use of antibiotics, represent a significant public health problem in our country. This emphasizes the need to implement nationwide strategies to reduce the irrational use of antibiotics, especially among children. It is necessary to complement data of resistan…
Serotipos de neumococo en niños portadores antes de la vacunación antineumocócica en el Perú
Objectives. To determine the carriage rate and serotype distribution of Streptococcus pneumoniae in the nasopharynx of healthy children younger than 2 years prior to the universal use of the pneumococcal conjugate vaccines in Peru. Materials and methods. Between 2007 and 2009 we collected nasopharyngeal swab samples from 2,123 healthy children aged 2 to 24 months in the vaccination and healthy children consultation offices of pediatric hospitals …
Serotipos de neumococo en niños portadores antes de la vacunación antineumocócica en el Perú
The distribution of vaccine serotypes in the analyzed strains was of 50% for the serotypes present in the seven-valent vaccine, 50.2% for the serotypes present in the ten-valent vaccine and 57.2% for those present in the thirteen-valent vaccine
Invasive pneumococcal diseases among hospitalized children in Lima, Peru
IPD in hospitalized children in Lima is associated with high antimicrobial resistance levels and elevated case fatality rate, especially in young children. This baseline data will be useful for evaluating the effects of vaccine introduction
