INTRODUCTION: Measles is affecting millions of people in the developing countries
particularly in India with significant morbidity and responsible for thousands of
death in spite of having a safe, effective, and cheap vaccine. Pulmonary
complications account for 90% measles-related death. The objectives of this study
were to describe age distribution, clinical features, complications, and clinical
outcomes of measles cases in a referral infectious disease hospital of West
Bengal. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective descriptive study including 584
patients and collected information from record section on demographics, clinical
features, complications, and clinical outcomes using data abstraction form.
RESULTS: The mean age of 584 measles cases was 3.7 years (±1.2 years). The most
common complication was pneumonia (149 cases) followed by diarrhea and
encephalopathy. Very severe pneumonia occurred in 34 cases requiring intensive
care out of which 13 patients died. The average duration of stay in the hospital
was 5.7 days (±3.2 days). Surprisingly, 45 cases admitted to this hospital were
<9 months of age with subsequent death in 5 cases. CONCLUSION: Substantial number
of measles cases was seen in zero to <9 months of age group and fatality due to
complication was more among them.
