Topic: Infection Triggered Encephalopathy Syndromes (ITES)
Description: The Infection Triggered Encephalopathy Syndromes (ITES) describe a spectrum of clinical and radiological neurological disorders that result from a disordered neuroinflammatory response to common childhood infections. This response is primarily driven by the innate immune system resulting in neuronal excitotoxity and widespread CNS metabolic failure. Children with severe ITES have a dismal outcome (death, and moderate to severe disability in survivors) despite current treatment strategies. Emerging biologic immune-targeted treatments and neuroprotective strategies have shown promise in a number of ITES syndromes but much is yet to be known about clinical and imaging risk factors for severe disease, or the best treatment strategies or interventions to improve outcomes.
Speaker: Ass Prof Terrence Thomas
