  • Title: Group B streptococcal meningitis: delayed response to treatment.
    Author: Edwards K, Ferrieri P, Thompson TR, Davis AT.
    Journal: Childs Brain; 1977; 3(6):343-51. PubMed ID: 338267.
    Abstract:
    Four infants with group B streptococcal meningitis had a delayed response to antibiotic therapy. Resolution of cerebrospinal fluid infection and/or pleocytosis occurred only after prolonged and intensive antimicrobial management. In this respect, these infants were similar to infants with gram-negative enteric meningitis. It is suggested that infants with group B streptococcal meningitis be closely monitored to insure adequate response to therapy.
