lüll The orthopaedic management of peripheral ischaemia in meningococcal septicaemia in children Davies MS; Nadel S; Habibi P; Levin M; Hunt DMJ Bone Joint Surg Br 2000[Apr]; 82 (3): 383-6Between March 1993 and February 1999, 14 children aged from eight months to 14.75 years were admitted to the paediatric intensive-care unit with meningococcal septicaemia in association with severe peripheral ischaemia. Of these, 13 were operated upon, eight of whom had early fasciotomies. Five children died. Of the nine survivors, one had no amputations while in the other eight 14 limb segments were amputated. We review the case histories and propose a protocol for the early management of these children.|Adolescent[MESH]|Amputation, Surgical[MESH]|Arm/*blood supply[MESH]|Child[MESH]|Child, Preschool[MESH]|Compartment Syndromes/mortality/surgery[MESH]|Fasciotomy[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Follow-Up Studies[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Infant[MESH]|Ischemia/mortality/*surgery[MESH]|Leg/*blood supply[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Meningococcal Infections/mortality/*surgery[MESH]|Sepsis/mortality/*surgery[MESH]|Survival Rate[MESH] |
