Epidemiological and Clinical Study of Bacterial Meningitis in Menoufiya Governorate
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
Bacterial meningitis in children is associated with substantial excess risk of intellectual, cognitive, and auditory impairment that persists into adolescence. Continuing developmental problems of higher order language, organisation, problem solving, and central auditory function may increase learning and behavioral difficulties. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical, laboratory and epidemiology of bacterial meningitis in Menoufiya Governorate Fever Hospitals.
