Invasive Group A Streptococcal Infections in North Carolina: Epidemiology, Clinical Features, and Genetic and Serotype Analysis of Causative Organisms

1 Oct 1997

Abstract excerpt

During 1994 and 1995, an increase in the number and severity of group A streptococcal (GAS) infections was noted in North Carolina. Ninety-six patients had GAS recovered from blood and other sterile body fluids, abscesses, and soft tissue. The overall case fatality rate was 11% but was much higher in patients with toxic shock syndrome (55%) and necrotizing fasciitis (58%). Recent invasive GAS isolates were...
