Extractions: Last updated August 17, 2002 Reptile-Associated Salmonellosis, Selected States 1996-1998 , November 12, 1999, 48(44):1009-1013 During 1996-1998, CDC received reports from approximately 16 state health departments of Salmonella infections in persons who had direct or indirect contact with reptiles (i.e., lizards, snakes, or turtles). Salmonella infection can result in invasive illness including sepsis and meningitis, particularly in infants. Despite educational efforts, some reptile owners remain unaware that reptiles place them and their children at risk for salmonellosis. This report summarizes clinical and epidemiologic information in four cases and provides information about state regulations to prevent transmission of Salmonella spp. from reptiles to humans. Case Reports Arizona. During October 1996, a 3-week-old boy was admitted to a hospital emergency department with fever (103.6 F [40 C]), vomiting, and bloody diarrhea of 15 days' duration. Stool and blood cultures yielded Salmonella serotype IV 44: , an extremely rare serotype. The infant was hospitalized for 10 days and treated with intravenous fluids and amoxicillin. To determine the cause of the infant's illness, a stool specimen was obtained from the family's pet iguana, which also yielded Salmonella IV 44:

Extractions: Last updated August 11, 2002 Reptile-Related Salmonellosis JAVMA Vol 209, No 3, August 1996, p. 531 There is a growing trend in the United States toward reptile ownership. In some parts of the country, up to three percent of households own reptiles, according to Dr. Frederick J. Angulo of the CDC. Increased ownership has led to a marked increase in the number of cases of reptile-associated salmonellosis reported to the CDC. The agency is currently trying to determine the extent of the problem, but cases of reptile-associated salmonellosis are estimated at 50,000 annually. Because of this, the CDC, Pet Industry Joint Advisory Council, and state health departments are developing a consumer education program aimed at reptile owners, warning of the dangers of reptile-associated salmonellosis. Symptoms include fever, diarrhea, vomiting, and cramps lasting one to two days. In infants and the elderly, salmonellosis can be a serious infection causing hospitalization, dehydration, and [in] extreme cases, death. In the 1970s, turtles were popular pets, but a ban on all turtles less than four inches in length as well as on the interstate shipment of turtles proved effective in educating the public of the inherent dangers of Salmonella by the turtles. The ban affected only turtles because, at that time, it wasn't recognized that other reptiles were a risk, and ownership of reptiles was not very popular, according to Dr. Angulo. "Since then, there's been increasing ownership of reptiles, and the problem of reptile-related salmonellosis has become increasingly evident," Dr. Angulo said.

Extractions: What is it? Salmonellosis is a classic example of "food poisoning." It is a common bacterial infection caused by any of more than 2,000 types of Salmonella . In HIV-positive people with suppressed immune systems, salmonellosis can lead to severe diarrhea or infection of the bloodstream, which can be very serious. These bacteria can enter the body by eating or drinking contaminated food or water or by contact with infected people or animals. The most common sources of salmonellosis include contaminated raw poultry, eggs, and unpasteurized milk and cheese products. Other sources of exposure include contact with infected animals, especially turtles, iguanas, other reptiles, chickens, cattle and poultry. Anyone who is exposed to Salmonella bacteria can get salmonellosis, but it is more likely to cause illness in people with suppressed immune systems, the elderly, and young children. Salmonellosis is a rare disease, even in people with AIDS. However, HIV-positive people with suppressed immune systems are 20-times more likely to become sick from Salmonella infection than HIV-negative people. Salmonellosis Index What is it?

People are most often infected by eating or drinking contaminated food or water or by contact with infected people or animals. Salmonellosis is typically a food-borne illness acquired from contaminated raw poultry, eggs, and unpasteurized milk and cheese products. Outbreaks have been reported associated with contamination of produce, cereal, candy, spices, and beverages. Other sources of exposure include contact with infected animals, especially turtles, iguanas, other reptiles, chicks, cattle and poultry. Who gets salmonellosis? Anyone who is exposed to Salmonella bacteria can get salmonellosis, but it is most commonly recognized in children, the elderly and people with a weakened immune system. What are the symptoms?

Extractions: Salmonellosis is an infection with a bacteria called Salmonella. Most persons infected with Salmonella develop diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps 12 to 72 hours after infection. The illness usually lasts 4 to 7 days, and most persons recover without treatment. However, in some persons the diarrhea may be so severe that the patient needs to be hospitalized. In these patients, the Salmonella infection may spread from the intestines to the blood stream, and then to other body sites and can cause death unless the person is treated promptly with antibiotics. The elderly, infants, and those with impaired immune systems are more likely to have a severe illness. What sort of germ is Salmonella?

This group includes food poisoning (gastroenteritis), blood poisoning (bacteremia), and typhoid fever, each caused by a different type of Salmonella bacteria. Food poisoning is the most common type of salmonellosis in this country. Salmonella bacteria can be found in milk and dairy products, eggs, poultry, and processed meats. You can spread the disease after handling food or utensils contaminated with the bacteria. Infected people and pets such as dogs, cats, and turtles can also spread the disease. You will get sick with this particular food poisoning 8 to 48 hours after eating contaminated food.

Extractions: Infectious Diseases Unit, Department of Human Services, Victoria 1997 What is Salmonellosis? Salmonellosis is a type of gastro (gastroenteritis) caused by the germ (bacterium) Salmonella. There are many different types of Salmonella that can cause illness. Salmonellosis can affect anyone, however it is more common in children under five years of age and young adults. The symptoms are often more severe in the elderly and people with other medical conditions. What Are The Symptoms Of Salmonellosis? The most common symptoms of salmonellosis are diarrhoea (which may contain blood or mucus), fever, stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting and headache. Dehydration may occur, especially in infants and the elderly. After the bacteria are taken in by mouth, it usually takes between 12 and 36 hours before you become ill. To trace the cause of the illness, it is necessary to know where you were and what you ate and drank in the two days before you became ill. Illness usually lasts for a few days but Salmonella bacteria may be present in the faeces for several weeks or longer. Where are Salmonella Found?

Extractions: Salmonellosis is one the main causes of foodborne disease. Detection and control of outbreaks is complicated by the fact that there are over 2,200 serotypes of Salmonella species, several of which have multiple phage types. Laboratory-based surveillance of salmonellosis with definitive typing and antibiograms allows for rapid identification of clusters. Investigations can then concentrate on individual cases infected with the epidemic strain and lead to better identification of risk factors and implicated food items. Utilization of molecular methods can lead to even more accurate identification of epidemic strains. Recommended Case Definition
