Erythema Marginatum • Present in 7% of patients • Highly specific to ARF • Cutaneous lesion: • Reddish pink border • Pale center • Round or irregular shape • Often on trunk, abdomen, inner arms, or thighs • Highly suggestive of carditis
Minor Manifestation Supporting evidence • Fever • Occurs in almost all rheumatic attacks at the onset, usually ranging from 38.4–40.0 °C • Diurnal variations are common, but there is no characteristic fever pattern. • Athralgia • Arthralgia without objective findings is common in RF • Less common • abdominal pain and epistaxis • ECG Prolong PR interval 1 Park MK. Pediatric Cardiology for Practitioners. 2008 2Hampole CV. Rheumatic Fever. Manual of Cardiovasc Med. 2013
Therapy General guideline for bed rest and indoor ambulation Recommended anti-inflammatory therapy Dosages: Prednisone, 2 mg/kg/day, in four divided doses; aspirin, 100 mg/kg/day, in four to six divided doses 1 Park MK. Pediatric Cardiology for Practitioners. 2008
Therapy… Primary prevention of rheumatic fever: recommended treatment for streptococcal pharyngitis 1 WHO. Rheumatic Fever and Rheumatic Disease. 2001
Therapy…. Antibiotics used in secondary prophylaxis of RF 1 WHO. Rheumatic Fever and Rheumatic Disease. 2001
ARF and Heart Failure When and How to Use it? • Management: • Diuretic • ACE-inhibitor • Aldosterone antagonist • Inotropic 1 WHO. Rheumatic Fever and Rheumatic Disease. 2001 2Hampole CV. Rheumatic Fever. Manual of Cardiovasc Med. 2013
Monitoring and Evaluation ARF • ARF could become Rheumatic Heart Disease • Monitoring: • Echocardiography • Check inflammation marker if needed 1Hampole CV. Rheumatic Fever. Manual of Cardiovasc Med. 2013
Complication • Rheumatic Heart Disease • Heart Failure • Other issues: • When the patient need to perform surgery? • Repair/replacement? 1Hampole CV. Rheumatic Fever. Manual of Cardiovasc Med. 2013
Take Home Message Acute Rheumatic Fever leading to Rheumatic Heart Disease is a major problem world wide. Appropriate treatment of group A strep pharyngitis necessary to prevent disease. Preventing recurrences causing chronic heart disease simple, universally available, and costeffective.
