6 71!" ENTEROVIRAL 71 INFECTION - A CRITICAL REVIEW Kai-Sheng Hsieh 1, Jia-Kan Chang 2 Abstract During the past 10 years, enteroviral 71 infection has caused significant psychosocial negative impact in Taiwan. Apparently this emerging infectious disease will alert pediatric health care professionals to take more effort to combat this serious illness. In Taiwan, traditionally the new illness caused by enteroviral 71 infection is called "Enterovirus Infection". The authors feel that it is a misnomer because there are many different types in enterovirus. For example, poliomyelitis is caused by poliovirus which is also an enterovirus but we never called poliomyelitis as enterovirus infection. Therefore the authors recommend a new term "Enterovirus 71 syndrome" or "Brainstem viral syndrome" instead of the traditional nonspecific "Enterovirus infection" to avoid misleading and confusion. Usually there are no specific laboratory findings for the laboratory diagnosis of enteroviral 71 syndrome except viral-targeted microbiology tests such as viral culture, serology or PCR-related tests. However, many of the drawbacks with these microbiological tests limited its application in the early diagnosis of enteroviral 71 syndrome. Therefore we must rely on the early clinical detection of enteroviral 71 syndrome. Although hand-foot-mouth disease or herpangina is often associated with enteroviral 71 syndrome, many patients with enteroviral 71 syndrome lack such presentations. The spectrum of enteroviral 71 syndrome is currently durided into 4 stages: 1. Hand- Foot-Mouth/ Herpangina or nonspecific viral syndrome stage. 2. Neurological stages with conscious change, seizure, myochonic jerks or motor palsy. 3(A) Sympathetic stimulation stages 3(B) Decompensated stage with extreme tachycardia/ hypertension and soon followed my cardiopulmonary decompensation. 4. Recovery stage. The management of enteroviral 71 syndrome depends on the clinical stages of patients. Careful monitoring is needed to close and precise recognition of different stages so that appropriate measures could be undertaken. In summary, enteroviral 71 syndrome is an emerging disease with possible serious complications. Every pediatrician should be alerted to this new syndrome and be familiar with its management to maximize clinical outcome!
