43. Labyrinthitis And Neuronitis: Infections Of The Inner Ear The inflammation can be caused by either bacterial or viral infections. Although the symptoms of bacterial and viral infections may be quite similar, http://www.vestibular.org/labyrin.html

Labyrinthitis and Neuronitis The inner ear consists of a system of fluid-filled tubes and sacs called the labyrinth as well as the nerves that connect the labyrinth to the brain. The labyrinth, which rests inside the bone of the skull, contains both an organ devoted to hearing, called the cochlea, and other organs, called the vestibular system, which are devoted to the control of balance and eye movements. The terms labyrinthitis and neuronitis refer to inflammations of the inner ear or the nerves connecting the inner ear to the brain. The inflammation can be caused by either bacterial or viral infections. If the inflammation affects the cochlea, it will produce disturbances in hearing, such as ear noises (tinnitus) or hearing loss. If the vestibular system is affected, the symptoms will include dizziness and difficulty with vision and/or balance. Since the whole inner ear is about the size of a dime, many infections affect both the hearing and balance systems and produce both kinds of symptoms. The symptoms can be mild or severe, temporary or permanent, depending on the severity of the infection. Although the symptoms of bacterial and viral infections may be quite similar, the two disorders require very different treatments, and it is therefore important for your doctor to make a proper diagnosis before starting a course of treatment. BACTERIAL LABYRINTHITIS Bacteria may cause damage to the labyrinth in two different ways. Bacteria that infect the middle ear or the bone surrounding the inner ear can produce toxins that inflame the cochlea or the vestibular system or both. This sort of inflammation is called serous labyrinthitis. Alternatively, bacteria may invade the labyrinth itself, causing what is called suppurative labyrinthitis. Serous labyrinthitis is most frequently caused by chronic, untreated middle ear infections (chronic otitis media) and is the more common type of bacterial inner ear infection. The bacteria that cause suppurative labyrinthitis can enter the inner ear as a result of bacterial meningitis, which is an inflammation of the protective sheath surrounding the brain. Bacteria can also enter the labyrinth if the membranes that separate the middle ear from the inner ear are ruptured by a disease, like otitis media, or by an injury, as in the case of perilymph fistula.

Health Topics Category Index Health Topics for Child Health and Development Children's Hospital of Iowa UI Family Care Centers ... Iowa Birth Defects Registry Send comments and questions to staff@uihealthcare.com University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa Viral infections Young children are highly sensitive to viruses because their immune system is still developing. A virus can enter the body in many ways besides food, fluids, and bites from insects or animals. The infectious secretions from viruses are passed on to others by coming in contact with them. They can be inhaled from airborne particles from coughs and sneezes. Touching or holding hands with an infected person and then rubbing the eyes or nose is a common way to "catch" a virus. Viral particles may be on surfaces of toys, doorknobs, tables, or telephones. There are approximately 200 known viruses that cause disease in humans. Over 100 of these cause "colds." Viruses attack different parts of the body to produce different problems. Some cause a sore throat, cough, runny nose, headache, or muscle ache. Others cause abdominal symptoms such as nausea, cramping, and diarrhea. Other examples of viral infections in children include specific viral syndromes such as: chicken pox measles mumps pneumonia polio diphtheria fifth disease roseola warts and flu Many viruses are hard to destroy without damaging or killing the living cells they infect, this is why drugs are not used to control them. Many viral diseases can be prevented by immunization. Antibiotics have no effect on viruses but may be used for secondary bacterial skin or respiratory infections. Colds, flu, and sore throats often recur in children.

Influenza: Case Study #3 Viral Infections Followed by Bacterial Pneumonia In the clinical course of this syndrome, patients typically report that after beginning to feel better, they experienced a return of symptoms, a worsening of cough. and production of purulent sputum. When this occurs, one should identify the responsible bacterial pathogen (pneumococcus, Staphylococcus, and Hemophilus influenzae are common causes) and initiate appropriate antibiotic therapy promptly. This syndrome's pathophysiology is relatively simple. Following flu-induced destruction of the epithelium, the tracheal toilet is severely compromised, and bacteria are retained in the lower respiratory tract. Bacterial seeding of the injured respiratory tract, however, is not the only factor in post-influenza bacterial pneumonia. Gareth Green, of the Johns Hopkins School of Hygiene and Public Health , has shown that the phagocytic function of alveolar macrophages is severely compromised after the flu. Thus, not only are bacteria more likely to get into the lungs, but the host is less capable of destroying them. Influenza Viral Pneumonia The clinical course of influenza viral pneumonia progresses rapidly. It can lead to hypoxemia and death within a few days of onset. Understanding the pathophysiology of this disease is aided by review of microscopic anatomy.

Solutions A to Z Viral Infections, Intestinal The sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting and abdominal pain usually means a child has contracted an intestinal infection, or gastroenteritis, which is most often caused by a virus. Intestinal viruses are highly contagious. They can be transmitted through direct contact, water or food. Outbreaks are most common in overcrowded situations with poor hygiene, but they can occur in any school or day-care setting. WHAT HAPPENS DURING AN INTESTINAL VIRAL INFECTION? After entering the body (usually through the mouth), the virus multiplies and penetrates the intestines. Viral particles affect the surface layer of cells lining the intestine. Damage to these cells interferes with digestion and causes intestinal upset, which resolves once the virus leaves the body. WHEN SHOULD I SUSPECT THAT MY CHILD HAS AN INTESTINAL VIRAL INFECTION?
