1 Jimmy's Got Cooties! Common Childhood Infections and How Best to Treat Them
2 Objectives:! Recognize and manage several infections commonly seen in Pediatric practice! Discuss best practices and current clinical guidelines for these common childhood infections! Discuss emerging evidence-based treatments and new data for each infection
3 Upper Respiratory Infection! Principles of Judicious Antibiotic Prescribing for Bacterial Upper Respiratory Infections (published November 2013)! Clinical Practice Guideline for the Diagnosis and Management of Acute Bacterial Sinusitis (published July 2013)! The Diagnosis and Management of Acute Otitis Media (published February 2013)! Clinical Practice Guideline for the Diagnosis and Management of Group A Streptococcal Pharyngitis (published September 2012)
4 Bacterial URI?! "Most upper respiratory tract infections are caused by viruses and require no antibiotics."! 3 recognized bacterial infections: acute bacterial sinusitis, acute otitis media, and streptococcal pharyngitis! Everything else, including non-strep pharyngitis, the common cold, acute cough illness, and bronchitis show NO benefit to antibiotic therapy
5 Principles of Judicious Antibiotic Use: 3 Core Principles Apply rigorous and stringent diagnostic! criteria Weigh the ratio of benefit to harm! Select the most appropriate narrowspectrum drug at the appropriate dose! and for the shortest effective duration
6 Scope of the Problem: Antibiotic Overuse! 50 million antibiotic prescriptions annually! million per year are "directed toward respiratory conditions for which they are unlikely to provide benefit"! Broad-spectrum, "shotgun" antibiotic use is on the rise, contributing to increasing antibiotic resistance and increased rates of drug-related events
7 Antibiotic Resistance
8 Antibiotic Resistance
9 Acute Bacterial Sinusitis Diagnostic Criteria! Persistent illness: URI symptoms lasting >10 days without improvement! Worsening illness (double sickening): worsening or new onset of nasal discharge, daytime cough, or fever after initial improvement! Severe illness: concurrent fever and purulent nasal discharge for >3 consecutive days! No role for imaging to distinguish viral vs. bacterial etiology
10 Acute Bacterial Sinusitis
11 Acute Bacterial Sinusitis Judicious Prescribing Strategies! Initiate treatment for "worsening" and "severe" infections! Consider a 3 day observation period prior to initiating antibiotics for "persistent" infections! Use high dose Amoxicillin (80 to 90 mg/kg per day divided bid) with or without clavulanate if antibiotics are indicated! If no improvement in 72 hours, upgrade to either high-dose amoxicillin-clavulanate or clindamycin PLUS cefixime or levofloxacin! Duration of therapy is not well-defined, but a good option is to treat for 7 days past the patient becoming symptomfree
12 Acute Bacterial Sinusitis Adjunctive Therapies! Intranasal steroids: while data in adults show significant reduction in symptoms, nearly all of the studies had "methodological flaws" including the 2 studies done in children.! OTC cold medications: insufficient data to recommend use, but these meds are generally contraindicated in children! Saline irrigation: few well-designed studies, with mixed results; minimal negative effects
13 Acute Bacterial Sinusitis The Latest! Do "watch and wait" prescriptions work? A study by Little et al in the UK (March 2014) says they do.! Zinc supplementation for the common cold (2011) showed reduction in duration and severity of symptoms as well as frequency of infections but firm recommendations could not be made
14 Acute Otitis Media Diagnostic Criteria! Moderate to severe bulging of TM or new-onset otorrhea! Mild bulging of TM along WITH <48 hours of ear pain! Both require presence of middle ear effusion
15 Acute Otitis Media
16 Acute Otitis Media
17 Acute Otitis Media Judicious Prescribing Strategies! Assessment and treatment of pain is REQUIRED regardless of further treatment path chosen! Prescribe antibiotics for those with severe signs or symptoms: fever >102.2, moderate or severe otalgia, or pain >48 hours! Prescribe antibiotics for those with otorrhea! For children 6 months to 2 years, prescribe antibiotics for bilateral infections, even without severe symptoms
18 Acute Otitis Media Judicious Prescribing Strategies For bilateral infections in kids over 2! with non-severe symptoms, consider a WASP For unilateral infections with nonsevere symptoms in all ages, consider! a WASP
19 Acute Otitis Media Judicious Prescribing Strategies! First line antibiotic choice is amoxicillin at high dose (80-90 mg/kg/day) as long as child is not penicillin-allergic, has not been treated with amoxicillin in past 30 days, and does not have concurrent conjunctivitis! If the child has recently been on amoxicillin, has conjunctivitis, or has a history of unresponsiveness use high dose amoxicillin-clavulanate! Alternate medications include cefdinir, cefuroxime, cefpodoxime, IM ceftriaxone
20 Acute Otitis Media Judicious Prescribing Strategies Use a 10 day course for children <2! and for those with severe symptoms Use a 5-7 day course in those >2 with! mild to moderate symptoms Do NOT use long-term prophylactic! antibiotics
21 Acute Otitis Media Adjunctive Therapies! Xylitol shows benefit for prevention of recurrence of AOM, when used as a lozenge or chewing gum! NO good studies evaluating the effectiveness of complementary/alternative treatments, such as saltwater gargles, chiropractic manipulation, essential oils, etc! Consider referral to ENT for tympanostomy tubes in cases of recurrent OM, defined as 3 episodes in 6 months or 4 episodes in one year! Recommend PCV and Influenza vaccination
22 Acute Otitis Media The Latest! Probiotics for prevention of AOM? Maybe... (2013)! Vitamin D supplementation may reduce the risk of recurrence Of AOM (2013)! Novel live-attenuated pneumococcal vaccine provides serotype-independent coverage for AOM, sinusitis, pneumonia and invasive disease in mice (2014)
23 Strep Pharyngitis Diagnostic Criteria! Diagnosis should NOT be based solely on clinical signs/symptoms, though there are some that point toward or away from strep Toward Away
24 Acute Pharyngitis Bacterial vs. Viral
25 Acute Pharyngitis Bacterial vs. Viral
26 Acute Pharyngitis Bacterial vs. Viral
27 Strep Pharyngitis Diagnostic Criteria! Throat swabs, either rapid in-office tests or cultures, SHOULD be performed for patients WITHOUT features suggestive of viral infections! Swabs are NOT indicated for children <3! Back up throat cultures SHOULD be sent for children and adolescents, but may not be necessary for adults
28 Strep Pharyngitis Judicious Prescribing Strategies! Rationale for treatment is prevention of complications and to reduce the spread of infection, not to shorten the duration of illness.! GAS infections are self-limited; symptoms typically resolve within a few days of onset! Routine testing and treatment of asymptomatic household contacts and chronic carriers is NOT recommended
29 Strep Pharyngitis Judicious Prescribing Strategies! Penicillin, amoxicillin or IM benzathine penicillin G are the drugs of choice in non-allergic patients! Amoxicillin can be used once daily at 50 mg/kg and tastes better than penicillin! In penicillin-allergic patients, use a first generation cephalosporin, such as cephalexin or cefadroxil; azithromycin or clarithromycin; or clindamycin! All should be given for 10 days, except azithromycin which is given for 5 days
30 Strep Pharyngitis Adjunctive Therapies! Analgesics/antipyretics, such as acetaminophen or NSAIDs are helpful! Do not use aspirin in children <18! Oral corticosteroids are NOT recommended! Topical agents may give symptomatic relief! Tonsillectomy is NOT recommended to reduce frequency of pharyngeal infection
31 Strep Pharyngitis The Latest! Is a strep throat vaccine not only possible, but in the works? Several studies show work is ongoing (2013 and 2014)! Why do "treatment failures" exist when there is no resistance to penicillin? (2014)! Are the recommended medications really the best choices? (2014)
