Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV)• 1 of the known human herpes viruses
• Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) – Chicken Pox• Herpes Zoster – Shingles
• Neurotropic human herpes virus with similarities to herpes simplex virus
• Air-borne and highly contagious disease• Causes primary, latent and recurrent infections• Increased morbidity and mortality in adolescent,
adults, and immunocompromised persons• Predisposed to severe group A streptococcus and
Staphylococcus aureus infection

• Prodromal symptoms• Nausea, loss of appetite, aching muscle and headache
• Fever (mostly low grade), malaise, 24-48hrs later associated with vesicular rash (successive crops of pruritic vesicles that evolve to pustules, crusts and at times scar4)
• Rashes starts from the scalp, face or trunk, upper extremities and lower extremities
• Some children might not have prodromal symptoms, they begins with vesicular rash and fever

Complications• Bacterial superinfection
• Staphylococcal• Streptococcal• May lead to toxic shock syndrome or necrotizing fasciitis
• Central nervous system• Generalized encephalitis• Aseptic meningitis
• Immunocompromised• Haemorrhagic lesions• Pneumonitis • Progressive and disseminated infection• Disseminated intravascular coagulation

Treatment• Antiviral treatment – Acyclovir • Human varicella zoster immunoglobulin (ZIG) is
recommended for high-risk immunosuppressed individuals

Prevention• Difficult to prevent as the infection is highly
contagious for 24-48 hour before the rash appears.• Live attenuated VZV vaccine can be administer• Postexposure prophylaxis – VZV vaccine or oral
acyclovir

Beware of admitting a chickenpox contact to a clinical area with
immunocompromised children

Perinatally Acquired Varicella• Maternal infection (onset of rash) within 5 days
before and 2 days after delivery• Mortality rate is high, due to severe pulmonary
disease or widespread necrotic lesions of viscera• The production and transplacental passage of
maternal antibodies that modify the course of illness in new-borns
• Exposed susceptible women can be protected with varicella zoster immune globulin (VZIG) and treated with acyclovir.

• Women with varicella lesions should be isolated from their newborns, breast feeding is contraindicated; when all the lesions have crusted, breast feeding should be commence
• Neonates with varicella lesions should be isolated from other infants but not from their mothers.
• Infants born in the high-risk period should also receive zoster immune globulin and are often also given acyclovir prophylactically

Summary• Primary, latent and recurrent infections• Primary infection is manifested as varicella – chickenpox• Results in establishment of a lifelong latent infection of
sensory ganglion neurons• Reactivation of the latent infection causes herpes zoster –
shingles• Increase morbidity and mortality in adolescents, adults and
immunocompromised persons, and predisposes to severe group A streptococcus and Staphylococcus aureus infections
• Can be treated with antiviral drugs• Initial infection can be prevented by immunization with live-
attenuated VZV vaccine16

Kawasaki Disease• Also known as acute febrile mucocutaneous
syndrome• A systemic febrile condition affecting children
usually <5 years old• Aetiology remains unknown, possible bacterial
toxins or viral agents with genetic predisposition• Aneurysms of the coronary arteries are an important
complication• Affects children 6 months – 4 years old, with a peak
at the end of the first year17

Diagnostic criteria• Exclusive diagnosis• Fever (HGF, remittent and unresponsive to antibitics)
lasting at least 5 days• At least 4 out of 5 of the following
• Bilateral non-purulent conjunctivitis• Mucosal changes of the oropharynx (injected pharynx, red
lips, dry fissured lips, strawberry tongue)• Change in extremities (oedema and/or erythema of the
hands or feet desquamation, beginning periungually)• Rash (usually truncal), polymorphous but not vesicular• Cervical lymphadenopathy

Treatment • Primary treatment
• IV Immunoglobulins 2 Gm/kg infusion over 10-12 hoursTherapy <10 days of onset effective in preventing coronary vascular damage
• Oral Aspirin 30 mg/kg/day for 2 weeks or until patient is afebrile for 2-3 days

Maintenance• Oral Aspirin 3-5 mg/kg daily (anti-platelet dose) for
6-8 weeks or until ESR and platelet count normal
If coronary aneurysm present, then continue aspirin until resolves
Alternative: Oral Dipyridamole 3-5mg/kg daily

Prognosis• Complete recovery in children without coronary
artery involvement• Most (80%) 3-5mm aneurysm resolve
• 30% of 5-8mm aneurysm resolve
• Prognosis worst for aneurysms > 8mm; mortality 1~2%
• Good prognosis for aneurysms <4mm
