Typhoid fever is endemic in the South Pacific. We investigated an outbreak in Nauru. Through interviews and medical records, we identified 50 persons with onset between 1 October 1998 and 10 May 1999, of fever lasting [ges ]3 days and one other symptom. Salmonella Typhi was isolated from 19 (38%) cases. Thirty-two (64%) patients were school-aged children, and 17 (34%) were in four households. Case-control studies of (a) culture-confirmed cases and age- and neighbourhood-matched controls; and (b) household index cases and randomly selected age-matched controls implicated two restaurants: Restaurant M (matched OR [MOR] = 11, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1·3–96) and Restaurant I (MOR = 5·8, 95% CI = 1·2–29). Food-handlers at both restaurants had elevated anti-Vi antibody titres indicative of carrier state. The annual incidence was 5·0/l000 persons. Outbreak-associated costs were $46000. Routine or emergency immunization campaigns targeting school-aged children may help prevent or control outbreaks of typhoid fever in endemic disease areas.

Typhoid disease is an acute systemic disease affecting the small intestine caused by Salmonella typhi. Treatment of tifodic fever can be done by medical or traditional means. One way of medical weighting is with antibiotic therapy. However, this time encouraged the existence of traditional medicine using earthworm Lumbricus rubellus. This study aims to determine the difference in sensitivity between antibiotic therapy with earthworm extract of Lumbricus rubellus in inhibiting Salmonella typhi growth in vitro. This research was experimental with bacterium isolate Salmonella typhi 0.5 Mc. Farland with Lumbricus rubellus earthworm extract in the form of infusa 15%, 30%, 45%, 60%, 75%, and 90% and various antibiotics that is Ampsisilin, Amoxicilin- Clavulanic acid, Cefuroxime, Chloramphenicol, Trimetophim, Sulfamethoxazole, Ceftriaxone, Meropenem, Cefotaxim, Levoflaxacin, Ceftazidim, and Cefepime were tested using the diffusion method. Observations were made by calculating the drag zone diameter in Mueller Hinton media. The results showed that there were significant differences between Lumbricus rubellus earthworm extract and antibiotic therapy, whereas in all concentrations of Lumbricus rubellus earthworm extract were resistant, whereas in all antibiotics were sensitive to Levoflaxacin type which had a large inhibitory diameter of 34 mm.   Keywords: Typhoid Fever, Salmonella typhi, Lumbricus rubellus Earthworm Extract, Antibiotic Therapy.

Typhoid fever is an acute infectious disease of the digestive system caused by the bacteria Salmonella typhi or Salmonella paratyphi. Typhoid fever is a global infectious disease in which an estimated 26.9 million cases of typhoid fever are found worldwide. Typhoid fever is especially common in developing countries because it is associated with poor sanitation. Clinical manifestations of typhoid fever that arise can vary from mild to severe symptoms. Symptoms of typhoid fever that are often found are fever, malaise, abdominal pain and constipation. Culture examination is a gold standard examination in establishing the diagnosis of typhoid fever. But this examination is rarely done. The first-line treatment option for typhoid fever is chloramphenicol. However, as the bacterial resistance to chloramphenicol increases, the main therapeutic choice for typhoid fever is the fluoroquinolone antibiotic.

Typhoid fever caused by Salmonella Typhi, is the most common gastrointestinalinfectious disease affecting all over the world particularly in Asia where more than 13 millionspeoples are affected. Six hundred thousand (600.0000) death occur annually all over the world.1Nearly eighty percent (80%) occur in Asia. The main source of infection is contaminated food, waterand poor hygiene. Monotherapy, emerging drug resistance and long duration drug treatmentis further complicating the problem.2 Approach to combination antibiotic therapy and shortestduration of treatment is needed. Period: January 2016 to June 2016. Objectives: To determinethe outcome of combination versus mono anti-biotic therapy in typhoid fever. Study Design:A prospective descriptive study. Place of Study: Mohi-Ud-Din Teaching Hospital Mirpur AJK.Results: Among 138 patients, the relapse rate was high in patients treated with monotherapyas compared combination therapy. Conclusion: Relapse is more common in ciprofloxacin andceftriaxone groups. Among combination therapy, (ciprofloxacin and ceftriaxone,) relapse wasless common. When relapsed patients were retreated with combination therapy, the patientswere completely cured.

Introduction:- Typhoid fever is an infectious disease caused by a bacterium salmonella typhi. Thespread of infection is usually by an oro-fecal route. Food handlers are a major source of spread in developed countries.In undeveloped countries like ours, contamination of drinking water and edibles are the major source. Infected shellfishare occasionally a source of an outbreak. Objectives To review the present practice of managing patients with typhoidperforation and comparison between the primary closure and exteriorization. Setting Surgical Unit-II, Nishtar Hospital,Multan. Duration Two years. Patients and methods Sample size 50 patients. Results:- A total of 50 patients werefinalized for the analysis. There were 14 females and 36 males (1:2.5). The age ranged from 18 years to 35 years, themean age was 28 years. In patient who underwent ileostomy, death occurred in 3 cases (10%). Most of the patientsbelonged to low socioeconomic class. Delay in reaching the hospital was significant for several reasons includingtransportation and pretreatment at peripheral private hospitals. 46 patients presented after 48 hours of perforation(92%). Conclusion:- In cases with good reserves and earlier hospitalization primary repair is certainly the procedureof choice

Diarrhea is a disease characterized by a change in the shape and consistency of stools, from soft to liquid, and increased frequency of bowel movements, which happen three times or more in a day. Different use of antibiotics by patients results in patient’s medical cost increase. The use of expensive antibiotics does not guarantee the effectiveness of patient care, therefore a research needs to be done to determine which antibiotic therapy is more cost effective between cefixime and cefotaxime antibiotics in hospitalized diarrhea patients in X hospital. This research was descriptive research with retrospective data retrieval. This research was conducted at Medical Record Installation and  Fund mobilization department of X hospital from November 2017 - Maret 2018. The samples in this study were 42 patients with 21 patients using Cefixime and 21 patients were using an Cefotaxime. Data was analyzed descriptively in table form. The results showed that the more cost-effective therapy between Cefixime and Cefotaxime in the treatment of diarrhea in X hospital was therapy with Cefixime antibiotic, which can be seen from ACER (Average Cost-Effectiveness Ratio) Cefixime Rp. 323.428,14/day compared with Cefotaxime ACER value of Rp. 477.180,26/day for each increase in effectiveness. The lowest ICER value on Cefixime was Rp. -50.565,8.-
