Management of acute meningitis.

Michael J Griffiths1,2,3, Fiona McGill4,5,3, Tom Solomon4,6,3.   

Abstract

Acute meningitis remains a devastating disease. Clinicians need a low threshold for suspecting meningitis, to undertake appropriate investigations and provide treatment in a timely manner, to minimise the risk of poor outcome in bacterial disease, while limiting unnecessary treatment in viral meningitis. © Royal College of Physicians 2018.
