  • Preventable Diseases Nick Wilson, Michael G Baker Abstract New Zealanders Can Now Reflect on and Celebrate 50 Years of Polio Elimination in This Country
    THE NEW ZEALAND MEDICAL JOURNAL Journal of the New Zealand Medical Association Celebrating 50 years of polio elimination in New Zealand: but inadequate progress in eliminating other vaccine- preventable diseases Nick Wilson, Michael G Baker Abstract New Zealanders can now reflect on and celebrate 50 years of polio elimination in this country. This success was followed by eliminating two other infectious diseases, brucellosis and hydatids, and an imported potential disease vector, the southern saltmarsh mosquito. However, this country has made inadequate progress in eliminating several other vaccine-preventable diseases. These include measles, mumps, and rubella, which are priority candidates for elimination, and potentially Hib disease and rotavirus infection. To achieve such successes almost certainly requires that the country: (i) builds national leadership for elimination goals; (ii) develops detailed plans; (iii) continues recent successes in enhancing routine vaccination coverage; (iv) introduces rotavirus vaccine into the childhood immunisation schedule; and (v) strengthens surveillance and research (on such questions as the cost-effectiveness of new vaccines, measures to enhance uptake, and effective border controls to reduce the risk of disease importation). For 50 years now (since 1 April 1962), New Zealand has been free of transmission of wild-type polio virus infection. The end of this disease was particularly sudden with cases declining from 214 notifications in an outbreak in 1961 (with seven deaths) to only five cases in early 1962. 1 The end coincided with mass immunisation campaigns with the new Sabin (oral) vaccine in 1961 and 1962. The coverage in the vaccination campaign running from April to June 1962 was approximately 95% of the child population up to school leaving age.

  • Death from Mast Cell Leukemia: a Young Patient with Longstanding Cutaneous Mastocytosis Evolving Into Fatal Mast Cell Leukemia
    CASE REPORTS Pediatric Dermatology Vol. 29 No. 5 605–609, 2012 Death from Mast Cell Leukemia: A Young Patient with Longstanding Cutaneous Mastocytosis Evolving into Fatal Mast Cell Leukemia Rattanavalai Chantorn, M.D.,*, and Tor Shwayder, M.D. *Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand, Department of Pediatric Dermatology, Henry Ford Hospital, Detroit, Michigan Abstract: Mastocytosis is a broad term used for a group of disorders characterized by accumulation of mast cells in the skin with or without extracutaneous involvement. The clinical spectrum of the disease varies from only cutaneous lesions to highly aggressive systemic involvement such as mast cell leukemia. Mastocytosis can present from birth to adult- hood. In children, mastocytosis is usually benign, and there is a good chance of spontaneous regression at puberty, unlike adult-onset disease, which is generally systemic and more severe. Moreover, individuals with systemic mastocytosis may be at risk of developing hematologic malignancies. We describe a girl who presented to us with a solitary mastocytoma at age 5 and later developed maculopapular cutaneous mastocytosis. At age 23, after an episode of anaphylactic shock, a bone marrow examination revealed mast cell leukemia. She ultimately died despite aggressive chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation. Mastocytosis is characterized by the abnormal common forms of CM in childhood. The excoriation growth and infiltration of mast cells (MC) in various of lesions causes hives and perilesional erythema, tissues and is classified into two broad categories: which characterizes Darier’s sign (Fig. 3). SM is cutaneous mastocytosis (CM) and systemic mastocy- characterized by multifocal MC infiltrates with or tosis (SM) (1).

  • Managing Communicable Diseases in Child Care Settings
    MANAGING COMMUNICABLE DISEASES IN CHILD CARE SETTINGS Prepared jointly by: Child Care Licensing Division Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs and Divisions of Communicable Disease & Immunization Michigan Department of Health and Human Services Ways to Keep Children and Adults Healthy It is very common for children and adults to become ill in a child care setting. There are a number of steps child care providers and staff can take to prevent or reduce the incidents of illness among children and adults in the child care setting. You can also refer to the publication Let’s Keep It Healthy – Policies and Procedures for a Safe and Healthy Environment. Hand Washing Hand washing is one of the most effective way to prevent the spread of illness. Hands should be washed frequently including after diapering, toileting, caring for an ill child, and coming into contact with bodily fluids (such as nose wiping), before feeding, eating and handling food, and at any time hands are soiled. Note: The use of disposable gloves during diapering does not eliminate the need for hand washing. The use of gloves is not required during diapering. However, if gloves are used, caregivers must still wash their hands after each diaper change. Instructions for effective hand washing are: 1. Wet hands under warm, running water. 2. Apply liquid soap. Antibacterial soap is not recommended. 3. Vigorously rub hands together for at least 20 seconds to lather all surfaces of the hands. Pay special attention to cleaning under fingernails and thumbs. 4. Thoroughly rinse hands under warm, running water. 5.
