Purpose: The characteristics of early infantile meningitis in full-term and previously healthy infants may differ from those in preterm or previously ill infants. However, full-term and previously healthy infant data remain scarce, and the recent trends are not well known. Method: Full-term and previously healthy infants (<3 months old) diagnosed with meningitis in our hospital between January 2008 and December 2013 were enrolled. We retrospectively reviewed their clinical and laboratory data. Results: A total of 162 full-term and early infants with meningitis (male, 55.6%;mean age, 45 days) were enrolled. Among them, 122 patients (75.3%) were diagnosed with viral meningitis (63 enterovirus-proven and 59 viral-suspected), and 40 patients (24.7%) were diagnosed with bacterial meningitis (18 bacteria-proven and 22 bacterial-suspected). The proportion of early infantile meningitis among all infants admitted (<3 months of age) increased significantly from 1.6% to 3.1%, and viral meningitis increased from 1.1% to 2.3% (P<0.01). Early infantile meningitis increased significantly at each 2-year interval. The seasonal viral meningitis peak shifted from July to June after 2012. Group B Streptococcus was the most common bacterial pathogen (88.9%) and usually caused late-onset meningitis (14 of 16). Coxsackie B viruses were most commonly isolated (59.3%) from the 54 patients with viral meningitis using available genotype data. Conclusion: Early infantile meningitis in previously healthy full-term infants (<3 months old) increased significantly between 2008 and 2013, and most cases were viral meningitis. The seasonal viral meningitis peak shifted from July to June after 2012.

The seasonal viral meningitis peak shifted from July to June after 2012.
