Resumo
The incidence of pneumococcal meningitis was analyzed among children under 6 years of age in the Russian Federation. A proportion of pneumococcal meningitis in the etiological structure of purulent bacterial meningitis was ascertained and its morbidity rate calculated. Among children aged less 6 years in the Russian Federation in 2010, pneumococcal meningitides were shown to rank third in the structure of purulent bacterial meningitides and to be 10%. By taking into account the low-level laboratory interpretation of purulent bacterial meningitides (33%), the morbidity rate for pneumococcal meningitides to be 1.7 times greater than the registered rates.
