Further Inpatient Inpatient Care If treated with well-selected antibiotics, patients with typhoid fever (enteric fever) should defervesce within 35 days. Howev However, er, patients with complicated c omplicated typhoid t yphoid fever fever should finish t heir course intravenou intravenously sly and should remain in the hospital if unable to manage this at home. Patients with complicated typhoid fever should be admitted through the acute phase of the illness. Uncomplicated cases are generally treated on an outpatient basis unless the patient is a public health risk or cannot be fully monitored outside the home.
Further Outpatient Outpatient Care After discharge, patients should be monitored for for relapse relapse or complications c omplications for for 3 months after treatment has commenced. Five Five percent to 10% of patients treated with antibiotic s experience relapse of typhoid fever fever after initial recovery. Relapses typically occur approximately 1 week after therapy is discontinued, but relapse after 70 days has been reported. In these cases, the blood culture results are again positive, and high serum levels of H, O, and Vi antibodies and rose spots may reappear. A relapse of typhoid fever fever is generally generally milder mi lder and of shorter duration duration than the init ial ill ness. In rare rare cases, second or even third relapses occur. Notably, the relapse rate is much lower following treatment with the new quinolone drugs, which have effective effective intracellular intracellular penetration. penetration. S typhi and and S paratyphi rarely rarely develop antibiotic resistance during treatment. If an antibiotic has been chosen according to sensitivities, relapse should dictate a search for anatomic, pathologic, or genetic predispositions rather than for an alternate antibiotic. Previous Previous inf i nfecti ection on does not c onfer onfer immunity. immunity . In any sus pected relapse, infection with wit h a different different strain should be ruled out. Depending on the antibiotic used, between 0% and 5.9% of treated patients become chronic carriers. In some cases, the organism evades antibiotics by sequestering itself within gallstones gallstones or or Schistosoma haematobiu hae matobium m organisms that are infecting the bladder. From there, it is shed in stool or urine, respectively. If present, pres ent, these diseases must be cured before the bacterium can be eliminated. Untreated Untreated survivors of typhoid fever may shed the bacterium in the feces for up to 3 months. Therefore, after disease dis ease resolution, 3 stool cultures in one-month intervals should be performed to rule out a carrier state. Concurrent Concurrent urinary urinary cultures should be considere consi dered. d.
Deterrence/Prevention Travelers to endemic countries should avoid raw unpeeled fruits or vegetables since they may have been prepared with contaminated water and should not buy food from street vendors; in addition, they should drink only boiled water. In endemic countries, the most cost-effective strategy for reducing the incidence of typhoid fever is the institution of public health measures to ensure safe drinking water and sanitary disposal of excreta.

major cause of morbidity and mortality in those areas.
Vaccines In endemic areas, mass immunization with typhoid vaccines at regular intervals considerably reduces the incidence of infections. Routine typhoid vaccination is not recommended in the United States but is indicated for travelers to endemic areas, persons with intimate exposure to a documented S typhi carrier (eg, household contact), and mic robiology laboratory personnel who frequently work with S typhi . Vaccines are not approved for use children younger than 2 years. The efficacy of typhoid fever vaccinations against paratyphi serovars has not been firmly established, but is markedly less than their efficacy against typhi .[62] Travelers should be vaccinated at least one week prior to departing for an endemic area. Because typhoid vaccines lose effectiveness after several years, consultation with a specialist in travel medicine is advised if the individual is traveling several years after vaccination. The only absolute contraindication to vaccination is a history of severe local or systemic reactions following a previous dose. The typhoid vaccines available in the United States have not been studied in pregnant women. Currently, the 3 typhoid fever vaccines include injected Vi capsular polysaccharide (ViCPS; Typhim Vi, Pasteur Merieux) antigen, enteric Ty21a (Vivotif Berna, Swiss Serum and Vacci ne Institute) live-attenuated vaccine, and an acetone-inactivated parenteral vaccine (used only in members of the armed forces). The efficacy of both vaccines available to the general public approaches 50%. Vi capsular polysaccharide antigen vaccine is composed of purified Vi antigen, the capsular polysaccharide elaborated by S typhi isolated from blood cultures. The Vi antigen is absent in S paratyphi A, but this vaccine does provide some in vitro immunogenicity against S paratyphi A. This may be due to trace amounts of other, common antigens in the preparation. [63] Primary vaccination with ViCPS consists of a single parenteral dose of 0.5 mL (25 µg IM) one week before travel. The vaccine manufacturer does not recommend the vaccine for children younger than 2 years. Booster doses are needed every 2 years to maintain protection if continued or renewed exposure is expected. Adverse effects include fever, headache, erythema, and/or induration of 1 cm or greater. In a study conducted in Nepal, the ViCPS vaccine produced fewer local and systemic reactions than the control (the 23-valent pneumococcal vaccine). [64] Among sc hool children in South Africa, ViCPS produced less erythema and induration than the control (bivalent vaccine). A systemic review and meta-analysis of 5 randomized controlled trials on the efficacy and safety of ViCPS versus placebo or nontyphoid vaccine found a cumulative efficacy of 55% (95% CI, 30%-70%). The efficacy of vaccination with ViCPS has not been studied among persons from areas without endemic disease who travel to endemic regions or among children younger than 5 years. ViCPS has not been given to c hildren younger than 1 year. Questions concerning Vi typhoid vaccine effectiveness in young children (ie, < 5 y) have inhibited its use in developing countries. Whether the vaccine is effective under programmatic conditions is also unclear. Sur et al conducted a phase IV effectiveness trial in slum-dwelling residents aged 2 years or older in India to determine vaccine protection. Participants (n=37,673) were randomly assigned to receive a single dose of either Vi vaccine or inactivated hepatitis A vaccine, according to geographic clusters. The mean rate of Vi vaccine coverage was 61% and 60% for the hepatitis A vaccine. Typhoid fever was diagnosed in 96 subjects in the hepatitis A vaccine group compared with 34 in the Vi vaccine group (no more than 1 episode was reported per individual). Protective effect for typhoid with the Vi vaccine was 61% (P < 0.001) compared with the hepatitis A vaccine group. Children vaccinated while aged 2-5 years had an 80% protection level. Unvaccinated members of the Vi vaccine clusters showed a protection level of 44%. The overall protection level with all Vi vaccine cluster residents was 57%. The authors concluded that the Vi vaccine was effective in young children and protected unvaccinated neighbors of Vi vaccinees.[65] Ty21a is an oral vaccine that c ontains live attenuated S typhi Ty21a strains in an enteric-coated capsule. The vaccine elicits both serum and intestinal antibodies and cell-mediated immune responses. In the United States, primary vaccination with Ty21a consists of one enteric-coated capsule taken on alternate days to a total of 4 capsules. The capsules must be refrigerated (not http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/231135-followup#showall

frozen), and all 4 doses must be taken to achieve maximum efficacy. The optimal booster schedule has not been determined; however, the longest reported followup study of vaccine trial subjects indicated that efficacy continued for 5 years after vaccination. The manufacturer recommends revaccination with the entire 4-dose series every 5 years if continued or renewed exposure to S typhi is expected. This vaccine may be inactivated if given within 3 days of antibiotics. Adverse effects are rare. They include abdominal disc omfort, nausea, vomiting, fever, headache, and rash or urticaria. The vaccine manufacturer of Ty21a recommends against use in children younger than 6 years. It should not be administered to immunocompromised persons; the parenteral vaccines present t heoretically safer alternatives for this group. A systemic review and meta-analysis of 4 randomized controlled trials on the efficacy and safety of Ty21a versus placebo or nontyphoid vaccine found a cumulative efficacy of 51% (95% CI, 36%-62%). The efficacy of Ty21a has not been studied among persons from areas without endemic disease who travel to disease-endemic regions. Acetone-inactivated parenteral vaccine is currently available only to members of the US Armed Forces. Efficacy rates for this vaccine range from 75%-94%. Booster doses should be administered every 3 years if continued or renewed exposure is expected. The parenteral heat-phenol–inactivated vaccine (W yeth-Ayerst) has been discontinued. No information has been reported concerning the use of one vaccine as a booster after primary vaccination with a different vaccine. However, using either the series of 4 doses of Ty21a or 1 dose of ViCPS for persons previously vaccinated with parenteral vaccine is a reasonable alternative to administration of a booster dose of parenteral inactivated vaccine. A more effective vaccine may be on the horizon. A n investigational vaccine using ViCPS conjugated to the nontoxic recombinant pseudomonas exotoxin A (Vi-rEPA) has been studied in a randomized controlled trial. The vaccine was given to children aged 2-5 years and showed an efficacy of 89% (95% CI, 76%-97%) after 3.8 years. Vi-rEPA has not been approved for use in the United States.
Complications Neuropsychiatric manifestations (In the past 2 decades, reports from disease-endemic areas have documented a wide spectrum of neuropsychiatric manifestations of ty phoid fever.) A toxic confusional state, characterized by disorientation, delirium, and restlessness, is characteristic of late-stage typhoid fever. In some cases, these and other neuropsychiatric features dominate the clinical picture at an early stage. Facial twitching or convulsions may be the presenting feature. Meningismus is not uncommon, but frank meningitis is rare. Encephalomyelitis may develop, and the underlying pathology may be that of demyelinating leukoencephalopathy. In rare cases, transverse myelitis, polyneuropathy, or cranial mononeuropathy develops. Stupor, obtundation, or coma indicates severe disease. Focal intracranial infections are uncommon, but multiple brain abscesses have been reported. [66] Other less-common neuropsychiatric manifestations events have included spastic paraplegia, peripheral or cranial neuritis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, schizophrenialike illness, mania, and depression. Respiratory Cough Ulceration of posterior pharynx Occasional presentation as acute lobar pneumonia (pneumotyphoid) Cardiovascular Nonspecific elect rocardiographic changes occ ur in 10%-15% of patients with ty phoid fever. Toxic myocarditis occurs in 1%-5% of persons with typhoid fever and is a significant cause of death in endemic countries. Toxic myocarditis occurs in patients who are severely ill and toxemic and is characterized by tachycardia, weak pulse and heart sounds, hypotension, and electrocardiographic abnormalities. Pericarditis is rare, but peripheral vascular collapse without other cardiac findings is increasingly described. P ulmonary manifestations have also been reported in patients with typhoid fever. [67] Hepatobiliary Mild elevation of transaminases without symptoms is common in persons with typhoid fever. Jaundice may occur in persons with typhoid fever and may be due to hepatitis, cholangitis, http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/231135-followup#showall

cholecystitis, or hemolysis . Pancreatitis and accompanying acute renal failure and hepatitis with hepatomegaly have been reported. [68] Intestinal manifestations The 2 most common complications of typhoid fever include intestinal hemorrhage (12% in one British series) and perforation (3%-4.6% of hospitaliz ed patients). From 1884-1909 (ie, preantibiotic era), the mortality rate in patients with intestinal perforation due to typhoid fever was 66%-90% but is now significantly lower. Approximately 75% of patients have guarding, rebound tenderness, and rigidity, particularly in the right lower quadrant. Diagnosis is particularly difficult in the approximately 25% of patients with perforation and peritonitis who do not have the classic physical findings. In many cases, the discovery of free intra-abdominal fluid is the only sign of perforation. Genitourinary manifestations Approximately 25% of patients with t yphoid fever excrete S typhi in their urine at some point during their illness. Immune complex glomerulitis [69] and proteinuria have been reported, and IgM, C3 antigen, and S typhi antigen can be demonstrated in the glomerular capillary wall. Nephritic syndrome may complicate chronic S typhi bacteremia associated with urinary schistosomiasis. Nephrotic syndrome may occur transiently in patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency. Cystitis: Typhoid cystitis is very rare. Retention of urine in the typhoid state may facilitate infection with coliforms or other contaminants. Hematologic manifestations Subclinical disseminated intravascular coagulation is common in persons with typhoid fever. Hemolytic-uremic syndrome is rare. [70] Hemolysis may also be associated with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency. Musculoskeletal and joint manifestations Skeletal muscle characteristically shows Zenker degeneration, particularly affecting the abdominal wall and thigh muscles. Clinically evident polymyositis may occur.[71] Arthritis is very rare and most often affects the hip, knee, or ankle. Late sequelae (rare in untreated patients and ex ceedingly rare in treated patients) Neurologic - Polyneuritis, paranoid psychosis, or catatonia [72] Cardiovascular - Thrombophlebitis of lower-extremity veins Genitourinary -Orchitis Musculoskeletal Periostitis, often abscesses of the tibia and ribs Spinal abscess (typhoid spine; very rare)
Prognosis The prognosis among persons with typhoid fever depends primarily on the speed of diagnosis and initiation of correct treatment. Generally, untreated ty phoid fever carries a mortality rate of 10%-20%. In properly treated disease, the mortality rate is less than 1%. An unspecified number of patients experience long-term or permanent complications, including neuropsychiatric symptoms and high rates of gastrointestinal cancers.
Patient Education Because vigilant hand hygiene, vaccination, and the avoidance of risky foods and beverages are mainstays of prevention, educating travelers before they enter a disease-endemic region is important. Because the protection offered by vaccination is at best partial, close attention to personal, food, and water hygiene should be maintained. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention dictum to "boil it, cook it, peel it, or forget it" is a good rule in any circumstance. If disease occurs while abroad despite these precautions, one can usually call the US consulate for a list of recommended doctors.

symptoms, including fever, myalgias, chills, severe abdominal pain, and a cough, in addition to severe abdominal pain. Over the next 2 weeks, he lost a great deal of weight. He had intermittent but ever-increasing fevers. About 3 weeks after the onset of symptoms, he developed a few pale, salmon-colored macules on his trunk. His c ough became much more frequent and severe. He became delirious, list lessly wandering around the house fiddling with doorknobs. During the fourth week of his illness, he rapidly declined with increasing somnolence. After nearly 4 weeks of illness, he died surrounded by his loving family. The patient was Prince Albert, the Consort to Queen Vic toria. He was diagnosed with typhoid fever. His personal physician, Sir William Jenner, a leading expert on the disease, diagnosed typhoid fever. Prince Albert received the best therapy of the day.
