This is part of a write up on medicine management at NJH put up by Dr. Roshine. First of a series, this post gives a glance of meningitis case management at NJH over the last 6 months.
We have been particularly alarmed at the number
of patients diagnosed with probable TB meningitis, many of whom have had
atypical presentations. In our setting where patients come to us as at the last
resort, to be able to diagnose TB meningitis confidently and initiate therapy
early is vital. We have compiled the statistics over the past 5 months and are
awaiting further inputs from the medical fraternity. We had an opportunity to
present it in a recent CME on TB at the district level. We would value inputs
on this. Kindly go through the following set of information.
