RESUMEN

Fifty cases of puerperal tetanus were studied. It constituted 6.66% of total cases of tetanus with overall mortality of 52% which was higher in cases with incubation period of 14 days or less, period of onset 48 hours or less, higher grades, cases with temperature more than 37.7 degrees C and patients with respiratory complications. Significantly higher mortality rate after 48 hours signifies the need of effective local control of infection to improve prognosis. Prevention, early detection and prompt treatment of respiratory complications which is the main cause of death may further reduce mortality rate in these patients.

RESUMEN

Six hundred cases of tetanus were studied to find out incidence of respiratory complications and to evaluate factors predisposing such complications in tetanus. The incidence of complications was 41 per cent. Infants, patients of more than 40 years of age, smokers, cases with grossly contaminated injuries, short incubation period and short period of onset were more vulnerable. Patients with dysphagia, spasm, associated respiratory diseases and the patients in higher grades were also found to be more susceptible to respiratory complications.
