Explore the clinical characteristics and prognosis of children with norovirus (NoV)-associated benign convulsions with mild gastroenteritis (CwG).
We retrospectively analyzed the Clinical and laboratory data of children with NoV-associated CwG admitted to the emergency department of Guangzhou Children's Hospital between January 2019 and January 2020. And patients were followed up for 23-36 months.
There are 49 cases met the CwG criteria. Vomiting was the first symptom in 31 (63.3%) patients, and vomiting could be the main or the only gastrointestinal symptom. The mean frequency of seizures was 3.8 ± 2.4 episodes. Most patients (95.9%) experienced seizures that lasted for less than 5 min. Of the 43 (87.8%) cases followed up from 23 to 36 months, only one experienced recurrent convulsions (after rotavirus infection).
NoV-associated CwG patients were prone to experiencing more convulsions. However, because most NoV-associated CwG patients had good prognosis, long-term use of anticonvulsants are unnecessary.
探讨诺如病毒(NoV)相关轻症胃肠炎伴良性婴幼儿惊厥(CwG)患儿的临床特征和预后。
回顾性分析 2019 年 1 月至 2020 年 1 月广州儿童医院急诊科收治的符合 NoV 相关 CwG 标准的患儿的临床和实验室资料。并对患者进行了 23-36 个月的随访。
符合 CwG 标准的患儿有 49 例。31 例(63.3%)患儿以呕吐为首发症状,且呕吐可作为唯一或主要胃肠道症状。惊厥的平均发作频率为 3.8±2.4 次。大多数患儿(95.9%)的惊厥持续时间小于 5 min。43 例(87.8%)随访 23-36 个月的患儿中,仅 1 例患儿(轮状病毒感染后)出现复发惊厥。
NoV 相关 CwG 患儿易发生多次惊厥,但由于大多数 NoV 相关 CwG 患儿预后良好,长期使用抗惊厥药物并无必要。
