摘要:

Strict interpretation of the package insert for hepatitis B vaccine (Heptavax-B and Recombivax HB) would preclude its administration to anyone with a history of ocular sensitivity to thimerosal, but data to support this are hard to find. Given the large number of vaccinees, many of whom wear contact lenses, reported cases of significant adverse reactions are sparse. No studies have directly addressed the ocular sensitivity issue. For two years, we monitored an immunization program for hospital employees. Ten employees (2.2%) gave a history of ocular sensitivity to thimerosal. Nine were vaccinated, without untoward reactions. This small series does not resolve the safety issue and should not be so interpreted. Likewise, the question of danger remains unanswered. If others administering the vaccine would ask the proper questions, sufficient numbers could be generated and reported that would either support the contraindication, or lead to a change in its present wording.

摘要:

Vibrioinfections constitute a continuing source of morbidity and mortality in Florida. Seven fatal infections caused byVibrio parahaemolyticusorV choleraenon-O1 were reported in Florida between 1981 and 1988. Review of those seven medical records andVibriocase investigation forms showed that although all patients died of sepsis, gastrointestinal signs and symptoms characterized the early illness in four patients, whereas the other three initially had painful swelling and/or lesions of the lower extremities. All patients had preexisting chronic diseases. Five patients (71%) had eaten seafood during the week before onset of illness, including four (57%) who had eaten raw oysters. To reduce the risk of acquiringVibrioinfections, raw or undercooked seafood should be eliminated from the diet, particularly by persons with underlying chronic diseases.

摘要:

Electrocardiographic abnormalities have been reported during ritodrine tocolysis. No previous studies, however, have included controls. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the electrocardiographic tracings of patients receiving ritodrine tocolysis and compare them with those of matched controls. Holter monitors were placed on eight patients receiving ritodrine tocolysis and eight control patients for 24 hours to make continuous electrocardiographic records. Twelve-lead electrocardiograms, serum glucose, and electrolyte concentrations were monitored serially in all patients. Four of the eight patients receiving ritodrine tocolysis demonstrated ST segment depression, while none of the control patients manifested any electrocardiographic abnormalities. The observed ST segment depression appears to be related to the degree of maternal tachycardia and the level of hypokalemia and hyperglycemia that occurs during early ritodrine tocolysis.
