Neonatal nonpolio enterovirus and parechovirus infections.
Seminars in Perinatology 2018 April
Nonpolio enteroviruses and parechoviruses are frequent causes of neonatal infection. Clinical manifestations of infection range from asymptomatic infection to mild infection without sequelae to septic shock with muiltiorgan failure. Neonates with clinically apparent infection typically have mothers and/or other contacts with recent symptoms consistent with a viral illness. Severe neonatal infection with nonpolio enterovirus or parechovirus cannot be differentiated clinically from serious bacterial infection. The preferred method for diagnosing neonatal nonpolio enterovirus or parechovirus infection is PCR as it is rapid, sensitive, specific, and commercially available for the detection of virus from various clinical specimens. Investigational agents such as the capsid inhibitors pleconaril and pocapavir show promise for treatment of neonatal enterovirus infections, and other investigational agents are being developed. This review focuses on the epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of neonatal nonpolio enterovirus and parechovirus infections.
