Vaccine: DTAP, IPV
Symptoms: Chills, Conjunctivitis, Electroencephalogram abnormal, Febrile convulsion, Heart rate increased
Clinical narrative: On 8/6/02, the pt was febrile with tactile temperature which responded to Tylenol, but he was showing normal activity the morning of 8/7/02. Mother took him to the pediatrician who examined the child and did not find any focus of infection. He was afebrile at the time. He was given normal DTAP and IPV vaccine at that time. When the pt returned home, he became febrile again. The mom gave him Tylenol and gave him a cool bath. After removing from the bath, she noticed some abnormal behavior. The pt began seizing, approx. 5 hours from time of vaccine. The mom called 911 and EMS took the child to the hospital where the pt continued to have generalized, tonic-clonic seizures refractory to Dilantin, phenobarbital and valium; he was then pharmacologically paralyzed with vecuronium and intubated to stop his status epilepticus. His seizure episode lasted approx. 18-20 minutes total. On exam in ER: Vital signs: BP-90/50, his pulse was in the 180's, his temperature was 37.6C. His perfusion was moderate. He had some decreased perfusion in the extremities and empirically, had some rigors associated with increased temperatures. He had been given some Tylenol. His pupils were 1:2mm and reactive. He had some conjunctivitis. He had an ET tube in place. He had no evidence of abrasions on his skin. On his chest and lung exam, he had coarse breath sounds and decreased breath sounds on the right side throughout. His left breath sounds were coarse. His abdominal exam was soft and non-tender and non-distended with no organomegaly. His extremities were normal. His hospital course was unremarkable. He improved in all aspects, received Dilantin, which was changed to Tegretol, which caused a rash and was discontinued. He also received Ceftriaxone and acyclovir until he ruled out for meningitis. His entirely negative work-up left us to consider the possibility of vaccine reaction, or at least a vaccine-related fever that led to an atypical complicated febrile seizure. As it occurred within hours of his 4th DTAP dose, we thought that it was a

Symptoms: Atrial fibrillation, Blood creatine phosphokinase increased, Cardiovascular disorder, Convulsion, Hepatic function abnormal
Clinical narrative: Complex seizure disorder, left temporal lobe: Symptoms began 3 months after anthrax injection 3 (11/12/98). Dx'd on 2/10/00 by EEG. Pt followed by civilian neurologist. Three months, post vax of 3rd Anthrax (all from lot FAV030), he began having syncopal episodes. He was disqualified from his flying duties as a C-5 Flight Engineer in 3/00. Currently on Tegretol XL 600mg bid, but is in the process of being gradually weaned from Tegretol to Lamictal 25mg 2 tabs/day: Atrial Fibrillation following a seizure. Dx'd 5/23/00 (believed to be secondary to stress of seizure) followed by a civilian cardiologist and takes 1 ECASA: Neuro-cardiogenic syncope dx'd 4/8/99 by abnormal tilt test; subsequent tile test 9/99 was negative (asymptomatic without restrictions): Mitral Valve Prolapse, mild; ECG on 4/30/99, revealed mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy, mild mitral regurgitation, trace tricuspid regurgitation and normal systolic function; SEB prophylaxis recommended for dental procedures. Anthrax vaccine exemption: due to concurrent illness and recommend continued medical exemption due to serious concurrent illness precluding the need for further Anthrax vaccination.

Clinical narrative: Information has been received regarding a case in litigation concerning a male child who was injected with vaccinations containing the toxic mercury-based preservative thimerosal during his 1st year of life, from 2/97 through 1998, and each time he received a multi-dose vaccine. The alleged results of these vaccinations are that the pt sustained severe and permanent personal injuries, including being dx'd with severe autism and other neurological disorders. In addition, it is alleged that the pt has sustained further neurological insult from other vaccines, including MMRII, which does not contain thimerosal, but caused further neurological insult and exacerbated the neurological disorders from the prior thimerosal exposure. Upon internal review, permanent personal injuries, severe autism, neurological disorders and the exacerbation of the neurological disorders were considered to be "Other Important Medical Events".

Secondary suspect therapy included carbamazepine 400mg (therapy dates not specified).  On 07/27/2002, the patient developed Guillain Barre syndrome and Miller Fisher syndrome.  In early August 2002, the patient developed a gait inability and was hospitalized.  On 08/06/2002, gamma globulin therapy was started.  The patient also developed nystagmus (onset date not specified).  On 08/09/2002, the patient recovered from the Guillain Barre Synderome, Miller Fisher syndrome and nystagmus.  The reporting physician felt that the Guillain Barre syndrome, Miller fisher syndrome and nystagmus were not related to pneumococcal vaccine 23 polyvalent vaccine, but strongly suspected that carbamazepine therapy had causality with the events.
