Haemophilus influenzae H-Flu

This week we are not featuring a guest, but will be discussing Haemophilus influenzae, or H. influenzae, a kind of bacteria. It can cause bacterial infections ranging from mild (such as bronchitis) to severe (such as septic arthritis). Treatment includes antibiotics but you may also require hospitalization depending on the severity of your condition.

Haemophilus influenzae (H. influenzae) is a type of bacteria that can cause several different kinds of infections. These bacterial infections can range from mild, such as ear infections, to severe, such as bloodstream infections. The infections typically affect children younger than 5 years old. They also affect people who are immunocompromised, such as those with certain medical conditions.

Some H. influenzae infections are "invasive," which means the bacteria invade parts of your body that are normally free from germs. For instance, H. influenzae can invade the fluid surrounding your spinal cord and brain, which can cause meningitis. Meningitis is the swelling of the lining of your brain and spinal cord. Invasive diseases usually require hospital treatment and can sometimes be fatal. (Credits: Cleveland Clinic)
