Current research status of diagnosis and treatment of Enterococcus faecium meningitis in children

doi:10.3877/cma.j.issn.1673-5250.2021.04.003

The incidence of Enterococcus faecium meningitis (EFM) in children is low, but the mortality is high. Because Enterococcus faecium has natural resistance and it is difficult for drug to penetrate cerebrospinal fluid barrier to reach effective treatment concentration, it is intractable to inhibit and kill Enterococcus faecium in children. The clinical treatment of EFM in children is difficult. In recent years, emergence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium has made the clinical treatment for EFM more difficult. In this article, the etiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of EFM are briefly reviewed, in hope of deepening understanding on EFM in children and achieving better diagnosis and treatment.
