Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
There is paucity of data regarding tick-borne diseases during pregnancy. Here, we report a case of human granulocytic anaplasmosis during pregnancy with successful treatment and a favorable neonatal outcome. We also review diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes of published case reports from 1983 to 2010 of human granulocytic anaplasmosis, Lyme disease, babesiosis, and human monocytic ehrlichiosis in the United States. Target Audience: Obstetricians and Gynecologists and Family Physicians Learning Objectives: After the completing the CME activity, physicians should be better able to diagnose tick-born diseases, implement best treatment options during the pregnancy, and assess the neonatal outcomes. |
