1、Introduction?Bacterial meningitis is an inflammation of the leptomenings, usually causing by bacterial infection.?Bacterial meningitis may present acutely (symptoms evolving rapidly over 1-24 hours), subacutely (symptoms evolving over 1-7days), or chronically (symptoms evolving over more than 1 week
2、).Introduction?Annual incidence in the developed countries is approximately 5-10 per 100000. ?30000 infants and children develop bacterial meningitis in United States each year. ?Approximately 90 per cent of cases occur in children during the first 5 years of life.Introduction?Cases under age 2 year
