• Bacterial--Purulent infection within subarachnoid space that is followed by CNS inflammation.
• Most common etiologies--S. pneumoniae, N. meningitidis

• Most common etiology--Enteroviruses
• Fungal

• 35.5% (16/45) of patients with bacterial meningitis received a second antibiotic in the ED.
• 12% (46/389) of patients with aseptic meningitis received a second antibiotic in the ED.
• Vancomycin was the most common second antibiotic given in both groups.

• 4% (17/438) were HIV (+). (10 Viral, 7 Fungal)
• 35% (6/17) received an antibiotic (5 Ceftriaxone, 1 Ceftizoxime) the ED. (No difference in time to first antibiotic in HIV (+) patients.) No patient received an anti-fungal in the ED.
• 82% (14/17) received antibiotics as an inpatient.
• 41% (7/17) received an anti-fungal as an inpatient.

• Although antibiotics are routinely prescribed in meningitis, time to first dose is inadequate.
• Ceftriaxone is the most commonly prescribed antibiotic in ALL meningitis types in ED and inpatient settings (EXCEPT inpatient fungal).
• Discrepancies between emergency dept and inpatient antibiotic use exist, particularly in HIV (+) patients.
• Survival rate for ALL meningitis types is EXCELLENT.

• Limitations inherent in retrospective reviews.
• Interpretive Bias
• Confounding Factors (Missing Charts/Info)
• Hospital Population vs. General Population
• Data Collection Continues
• Aseptic >>> Bacterial > Fungal
