This concise pocketbook will provide readers with an overview and background of meningococcal disease, treatment options and emerging therapies, and methods of prevention. The book was originally commissioned due to recent developments in vaccinations to prevent meningococcal disease. This book reviews the disease progression and associated risk factors; its pathogenesis and diagnosis; methods of treatment and prevention, both current and emerging; and the future directions of meningococcal disease management. The book is ideal for busy healthcare professionals, as it covers all aspects of the disease and its treatment in a condensed and manageable format, whilst including the most up-to-date treatment guidelines and algorithms.

A comprehensive overview of recent advances, from current basic research and epidemiology, to novel therapeutic strategies and clinical management. Here, the leading scientists who have made major advances in the field provide up-to-date reviews and describe their current knowledge and concepts. As such, this is the first volume to summarize the implications of the meningococcus genome-sequencing project, emphasizing the novel strategies in vaccine development. Following a look at the history, the authors go on to treat the epidemiology of meningococcal disease, as well as the genetics, structure and function of virulence factors. Further chapters cover cross-talk between meningococci and host cells, genomics and immunobiology. The result is a standard handbook for all scientists working in the field. While aimed at advanced specialists in basic research, epidemiologists, public health workers, vaccine developers and clinicians, the book is equally appropriate as introductory reading for graduates embarking on their career in this field.

The purpose of this document is to provide evidence-based guidance for good practice in public health management of sporadic cases of meningococcal disease and their contacts. It has the additional aim of assisting countries across Europe in making decisions about appropriate measures to control and prevent meningococcal disease at national and sub-national levels. This guidance document should assist European countries in reviewing their own policies on public health management and microbiological diagnosis of meningococcal disease. While the results presented here do not include guidance for management of exposed healthcare workers nor of community outbreaks, it will cover the following relevant areas: laboratory tests to confirm the diagnosis of IMD, use of antibiotics at discharge from hospital, chemoprophylaxis for close contacts considering different settings. choice of antibiotic for chemoprophylaxis for different groups (adults, children, pregnant women), and use of meningococcal vaccine in addition to chemoprophylaxis.

Invasive infection with Neisseria meningitidis occurs in endemic and epidemic forms. In Australia epidemic disease has not occurred for many years; endemic disease is at low levels of incidence and cases are generally unrelated to each other. Despite this invasive meningococcal disease is of public health importance, is frequently a cause of public alarm and receives a high level of media attention. Responding to cases places heavy demands on clinical and public health disease control services. The aims of the Guidelines for the early clinical and public health management of Meningococcal Disease in Australia are: to assist primary care practitioners with the emergency management of cases of suspected invasive meningococcal disease; and to assist public health practitioners with the prevention of further cases after a case of invasive meningococcal disease has been reported.

Meningococcal disease remains a serious public health problem throughout the world. Although most individual infections can be treated successfully we are still unable to prevent most outbreaks or to eliminate endemic disease. Over the last ten years there have been major advances in our understanding of the epidemiology, molecular biology, pathogenesis, clinical management and prevention of meningococcal disease. In Meningococcal Disease, leading experts review recent developments in all of these areas. Practical aspects of clinical management, both of individual cases and of outbreaks, are strongly emphasised. Prospects for control are now rapidly improving with conjugate vaccines entering clinical trials and work intensifying in the development of vaccines for serogroup B disease. This book brings together up-to-date information on all aspects of meningococcal disease and will be of value to paediatricians, microbiologists, specialists in infectious diseases and professionals in public health medicine.
