Abstract

Invasive Salmonellosis is common in tropical areas. This study examines the performance of a clinical definition for its recognition among children ages 1 to 14 years admitting to a referral PEDIATRIC hospital in Tehran.60 Children were enrolled into the study during a period of 51 months. To facilitate analysis, cases were divided into 5 categories according to the likelihood of INVASIVE SALMONELLOSIS with category A representing microbiologically confirmed salmonella BACTEREMIA 17 (28.3%) and 6 (10%) with positive bone marrow cultures. And Category D representing those cases .in which an alternative diagnosis was firmly established. Salmonella SEROLOGY supported INVASIVE SALMONELLOSIS as the diagnosis in 17 (28%) of the nonbacteremic children (Category B and C).Salmonella SEROLOGY suggested that INVASIVE SALMONELLOSIS without detectable BACTEREMIA was common. Blood culture proved and serologically diagnosed cases shows that the definition has a specificity of at least 60%.
