Chronic strongyloidiasis can cause a high mortality 'hyper-infection' in immunocompromised states.

A systematic review of studies describing patients in the UK with strongyloidiasis pooled a total of 1,308 patients. Weighted pooled prevalence (WPP) of asymptomatic cases was 27.7% (95% CI 17.1-39.5%, I2 = 92%, p < 0.01). At-risk populations included migrants, returning travellers and armed forces personnel. The most common symptoms reported were abdominal pain (WPP 32.1% (95% CI 20.5-44.8%), I2 = 93%, p < 0.01), rashes (WPP 38.4% (95% CI 13.1-67.7%), I2 = 99%, p < 0.01) and diarrhoea (WPP 12.6% (95% CI 6.7-19.9%), I2=70%, p = 0.03).

To assess the appropriateness of management, PenA patients prescribed penicillins were grouped into risk categories using a validated antibiotic allergy assessment tool: eligible for de-label on history alone (direct de-label; DDL), eligible for direct oral challenge (DOC), high risk or unable to obtain history.Results: Of the 123 patients admitted with a PenA (or sensitivity record) and exposed to a penicillin, data were collected for 50. Their PenA records were grouped follows: eligible for DDL 34 (68%), eligible for DOC 11 (22%), high risk 4 (8%) and unable to obtain history 1 (2%). In 14/50 (28%) patients there was no evidence of a current PenA assessment in the medical notes.Conclusions: Using the allergy risk tool, most patients with PenA records were exposed to penicillin appropriately. However, patients meeting high-risk criteria were also exposed to penicillin when the tool excluded them. PenA assessment needs to be carried out with appropriate training and governance structures in place.","PeriodicalId":10492,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"100225"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11304015/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141466705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Optimal use of these services requires rapid identification of suitable patients. NHSE suggests the use of one tool for this purpose. This systematic review compares studies that evaluate the performance of selection tools for SDEC pathways. Nine studies met the inclusion criteria. Three scores were evaluated: the Amb score (seven studies), Glasgow Admission Prediction Score (GAPS) (six studies) and Sydney Triage to Admission Risk Tool (START) (two studies). There was heterogeneity in the populations assessed, exclusion criteria used and definitions used for SDEC suitability, with proportions of patients deemed 'suitable' for SDEC ranging from 20 to 80%. Reported score sensitivity and specificity ranged between 18-99% and 10-89%. Score performance could not be compared due to heterogeneity between studies. No studies assessed clinical implementation.
