RABIES VIRUS INFECTION

diagnosis) of rabies encephalitis.
TERMINOLOGY
Definitions
Latin: "Rabies" (rage, madness)
Greek: "Lyssavirus" (Lyssa, goddess of madness, rage, and frenzy)
Greek "rhabdos" ("rod," for Rhabdoviridae family)
ETIOLOGY/PATHOGENESIS
Infectious Agents
Zoonotic infection transmitted by bites from infected animals (dogs > bats > other mammals)
Virus replicates in muscle, spreads from peripheral nerves to CNS by retrograde axonal transport, then to salivary glands and other organs
Incubation period 1-3 months (longer incubation with more distal sites of infection)
Can be as short as 1 week and as long as 1 year
CLINICAL ISSUES
Epidemiology
55,000 deaths per year (primarily Asia and Africa)
Most common in children under age 15
Site
Skin, muscle, central nervous system
Presentation
Initial symptoms of fever and pain and paraesthesia at wound site
Early onset of autonomic dysfunction (often overlooked)
Excess salivation may be evident but other signs
I
may be subtle

Rabies virus particles have a bullet-shaped morphology seen on thin-section electron microscopy. (Courtesy G. Nielsen, MD.)
Furious rabies (70%): Hyperactivity, excited behavior, hydrophobia, and aerophobia with progression to death by cardiorespiratory arrest (days)
Paralytic rabies (30%): Gradual muscle paralysis starting at wound site, coma development, and eventual death (more prolonged time course)
Laboratory Tests
Direct fluorescent antibody (dFA) test (brain tissue)
RT-PCR (saliva, skin biopsy)
Antibodies (serum, CSF)
Animal testing (in known exposure) is performed by public health services
Natural History
Progressive fatal inflammation of brain & spinal cord
Treatment
Primary prevention
Human diploid cell vaccine (HDCV) or purified chick embryo cell vaccine (PCECV) on days 0, 7, and 21 or 28
Rapid fluorescent focus inhibition test (RFFIT) determines rabies virus neutralizing antibody level in serum
Postexposure prophylaxis
Local treatment of wound (i.e., soap and water, detergent, or povidone iodine)
Nonimmunized
HDCV or PCECV on days 0, 3, 7, and 14
Human rabies immune globulin (HRIG)
Immunized
HDCV or PCECV on days 0 and 3
Presentation with symptoms
Palliative therapy
Aggressive therapy with rare survival (i.e., rabies vaccine, HRIG, ribavirin, IFN-, and ketamine)
Prognosis
Typically fatal once symptoms develop

TERMINOLOGY
Abbreviations

Definitions
"Syn" from Latin meaning "together"

Syncytium: Multinucleated cell lacking dividing cell membranes
Member of Paramyxoviridae family, subfamily Pneumoviridae
ETIOLOGY/PATHOGENESIS
Infectious Agents
Most common cause of bronchiolitis in infants < 1 year old
Most common in fall, winter, and spring in temperate climates, but can vary annually
Initial infection
Respiratory epithelium is infected through inhalation of infectious droplets or via direct contact with ocular mucosa
CLINICAL ISSUES
Epidemiology
Affects 70% of infants by age 1 and 100% of infants by age 2 years
25-40% of exposed infants will have symptoms of bronchiolitis or pneumonia; 0.5-2% will need hospitalization
200,000 deaths per year, mainly in infants in developing countries

Site
Upper and lower respiratory tract

RSV pneumonia is seen in an infant. Note the giant syncytial cell characteristic of the disease . (Courtesy Franz von Lichtenberg Collection of Infectious Disease Pathology, BWH.)
Severity of disease is thought to be mediated by strength of host immune response to virus
Presentation
Initial presentation: Rhinitis, fever, cough
May progress to bronchiolitis (wheeze and decreased oral intake) or pneumonia
Respiratory symptoms last 4-6 days
Host can continue shedding viral particles for 1-3 weeks
Immunosuppressed patients may present with severe respiratory symptoms without prodrome
Laboratory Tests
ELISA of nasopharyngeal aspirates
Treatment
No effective vaccine
Supportive treatment for mild cases
Oxygenation and hydration for more severe cases corticosteroids and epinephrine nebulizers
RSV immunoglobulin for severe cases
Prophylaxis with pavilizumab
Monoclonal antibody targeting RSV protein F, for selected cases such as premature neonates, infants with congenital heart disease, and infants with impaired lung function
Prognosis
Complications: Respiratory failure, encephalopathy (in 2% of hospitalized patients), seizures
Studies suggest that repeated infection in infancy may increase risk of subsequent asthma development
High-Risk Groups
Premature infants, especially in 1st year of life
Children with chronic lung disease such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia in first 2 years of life
Children with congenital heart disease
Immunodeficient patients (children > adults)
