This guide explains the causes and treatment of PCP in children, and how early diagnosis of HIV infection in pregnant women and children can prevent PCP. http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/pubs/brochure/oi_pcpkidz.htm

National Center for HIV, STD and TB Prevention Divisions of HIV/AIDS Prevention Brochures Home Index Search ... Subscribe PCP is the most serious infection among children with HIV. It can be fatal. PCP can be prevented and treated. TMP-SMX, also known as Bactrim, Septra, or Cotrim*, is the best medicine for preventing and treating PCP. Early diagnosis and treatment of HIV in pregnant women can help prevent HIV and PCP in their children. What is PCP? Pneumocystis carinii (NEW-mo-SIS-tis CA-RIN- nee-eye) pneumonia, or "PCP," is a severe illness that adults and children with HIV or AIDS may get. It is caused by a germ called Pneumocystis carinii. Most children infected with this germ don’t get pneumonia because their immune systems are normal. Children whose immune systems are badly damaged by HIV can get PCP. Children with HIV are less likely to get PCP today than in earlier years. However, PCP is still the most common serious infection among children with AIDS in the United States. How do I know if my child has PCP?

Hope's physician, Dr. Lee Kagan, said the 98-year-old entertainer is receiving antibiotics and breathing treatments and was reported in stable condition. Hope's publicist, Ward Grant, said Hope called his doctor Sunday after experiencing difficulty breathing and, following the doctor's recommendation, checked into St. Joseph Medical Center that evening, accompanied by his wife of 67 years, Dolores. "He was in serious condition when he was first admitted," Kagan said. "He was quite ill, but as I say, he has improved." The entertainer was hospitalized in June 2000 for gastrointestinal bleeding. Grant said the current hospitalization has nothing to do with Hope's previous health problem. VIDEO Entertainer Bob Hope checked into a Los Angeles hospital to receive treatment for pneumonia.

Joanne Hemstreet, 45, of Kingston, Massachusetts, died early Sunday at Kennedy Memorial Hospital in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, according to hospital officials, at least four days after coming down with flu-like symptoms. "We don't know the exact cause of her demise at this time, though ... this looks like a case of Pneumococcal pneumonia with a very severe complication," said Dr. David Condoluci, the hospital's chief of infectious diseases. The hospital admitted six women and one man staying at the same Hilton Hotel in Cherry Hill, about 10 miles southeast of Philadelphia.

In the United States, pneumonia is the fifth leading cause of death [Natl Vital Stat Report 47 (25), 10/5/1999].

Patient Notes Recognizing pneumonia Download this Patient Note in PDF format VOL 103 / NO 4 / APRIL 1999 / POSTGRADUATE MEDICINE Pneumonia is an infection or inflammation of the smallest air passages in the lungs. Infection can be caused by any of dozens of bacteria, viruses, and fungal organisms. Inflammation can result from inhaling dust, chemicals, food, or vomit. Pneumonia can be a very dangerous disease if it is not recognized and treated early. When you have pneumonia, the tiny air sacs in your lungs (alveoli) fill with pus and other liquid. Oxygen then can't reach your blood. If your blood contains too little oxygen, your body's cells can't work properly and you become ill. There are several different kinds of pneumonia, but bacterial, viral, and a less typical type called mycoplasmal pneumonia are the most common. The viruses and bacteria that cause pneumonia are contagious and are usually found in fluid from the mouth or nose of an infected person. Illness can spread through exposure to coughs and sneezes, shared drinking glasses and eating utensils, and used tissues or handkerchiefs. Bacterial pneumonia This is the most serious type of pneumonia and can attack anyonefrom infants to the very old. People with respiratory disease and weakened immune systems are at greatest risk.

Yes No VIEW RESULTS (CNN) Two epidemiological teams investigating pneumonia cases among U.S. military personnel in the Persian Gulf region have so far found nothing indicating they were caused by unusual factors, an Army doctor said Tuesday. There have been about 100 cases of pneumonia among military personnel in the area since March 1. Fifteen of those had to be treated with respirators, and two later died. As of Tuesday, no evidence existed that the pneumonia cases were caused by exposure to chemical or biological weapons, said Col. Robert DeFraites, chief of preventive medicine of the Army surgeon general's office. SARS and Legionnaires' disease also were ruled unlikely, DeFraites said. In addition, he said that medical teams have found no connection at all with Gulf War Syndrome, a variety of symptoms and illnesses that developed among troops involved in the Persian Gulf War in 1991.
