HUS is a disorder marked by renal failure, hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia (platelet deficiency), coagulation defects, and variable neurological signs. This disorder is most common in children. It frequently occurs after a gastrointestinal (enteric) infection, often one caused by a specific E. coli bacteria (Escherichia coli O157:H7). It has also been associated with other enteric infections including Shigella and Salmonella and some non-enteric infections. The incidence of HUS, once relatively rare, is increasing in children. It is the most common cause of acute renal failure in children. Several large outbreaks in 1992 and 1993 were attributed to undercooked hamburger contaminated with E. coli. Because of this association new labeling will appear on supermarket hamburger and temperature guidelines have been published for cooked hamburger at fast food chains and restaurants.

In about 15% of the children in North America who are infected with E. coli O157:H7, the hemolytic-uremic syndrome develops soon after the onset of diarrhea. This syndrome is characterized by thrombocytopenia, hemolytic anemia, and nephropathy and is believed to be caused by Shiga toxins secreted by E. coli

Help for sleepless parents Encyclopedia Index H hemolytic-uremic syndrome Search hemolytic-uremic syndrome Hemolytic-uremic syndrome is the most common cause of acute kidney failure in young children. It is a systemic disease, involving a triad of symptoms: hemolytic (blood destroying) anemia low platelet count kidney failure It most frequently follows an episode of gastroenteritis caused by an toxin-producing strain of Escherichia coli (E.coli), type O157:H7. It has been less often associated with other infectious agents such as the bacteria Shigella, Salmonella, Campylobacter, and Streptococcus pneumoniae, as well as some viral infections. The syndrome is most common in children younger than 4 years old. It is usually preceded by gastroenteritis with the usual fever, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. The diarrhea is often bloody, which in itself is always a worrisome sign. Less commonly the illness is preceded by an upper respiratory tract infection - a cold. About 5-10 days later the initial illness is followed by the sudden onset of paleness, irritability, weakness, lethargy, and decreased urination. Examination at that time may also show signs of dehydration, swelling (edema), petechiae,

Volume 4, Number 21 May 26 Antibiotics increase risk of hemolytic-uremic syndrome In a study released early by the New England Journal of Medicine because of its potential therapeutic implications, UW researchers found that antibiotic treatment of children with E. coli O157:H7 infection increases the risk of hemolytic-uremic syndrome. Researchers at Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center led by Craig S. Wong, senior fellow in pediatrics, and Phillip I. Tarr, professor of pediatrics, conducted a cohort study of 71 children under the age of 10 . Hemolytic-uremic syndrome developed in 5 of the 9 children given antibiotics, compared to 5 of the 62 children who were not given antibiotics. According to the study, factors significantly associated with hemolytic-uremic syndrome were a higher initial white-cell count, stool culture soon after the onset of diarrhea (perhaps indicating a more fulminant course of illness that prompted an early evaluation), and treatment with antibiotics. Hemolytic-uremic syndrome can sometimes occur after a gastrointestinal tract infection. It is marked by destruction of red blood cells, kidney failure and damage to the lining of blood vessel walls.
