摘要

This issue of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine includes a case report by Dr. Martinez and colleagues (1) on the use of exchange transfusion in a case of critical pertussis occurring in an 8-wk-old infant girl. To date, most reports of series of fatal Bordetella pertussis show a female prevalence in mortality (2, 3); although this may be confounded where immunization practices differ by gender. As well, the prevalence of pertussis critical illness in unimmunized, very young infants as compared with other age groups is well known (4, 5). Although the physiologic nature and etiology of these findings is beginning to emerge in ongoing studies as well as recent reports (6-8), it is encouraging to consider this report of the successful use of exchange transfusion to modify the course of this life-threatening and persistent problem. Critical pertussis illness is beginning to be described as "fulminant" and "malignant," as differentiated from the outpatient coughing illness (9, 10).
