Tick-borne-associated illnesses in the pediatric intensive care unit

Research output: Contribution to journalReview articlepeer-review

Abstract

When unrecognized and antibiotic delay occurs, Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain-spotted fever, babesiosis, and human ehrlichiosis and anaplasmosis can result in multiorgan system dysfunction and potentially death. This review focuses on the early recognition, evaluation, and stabilization of the rare life-threatening sequelae seen in tick-borne illnesses that require admission in the pediatric intensive care unit.
