Huo L, et al. - Children examined on the pediatric service of Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2016, were retrospectively analyzed to investigate the clinical aspects of hydrocephalus in children with bacterial meningitis with its risk factors. The age at onset of bacterial meningitis was observed <6 months. They confirmed 15 patients with bacterial etiology and 1 patient died due to the disease. They observed the rural living situation, altered level of consciousness, previous treatment with antibiotics, initial cerebrospinal fluid protein >2 g/L, C-reactive protein >100 mg/L, and dexamethasone use were most notable consequences for hydrocephalus. The most important predictors of hydrocephalus in children with bacterial meningitis were a severe clinical manifestation of disease and significant laboratory index at admission.
