Although additional codes examined may have indicated possible miscoding as tetanus in a number of other cases, they were not excluded from further analysis. The average annual incidence of reported tetanus was 0.20 per million population (annual range 0.04-0.39). Although a number of patients developed altered mental status, none had focal neurological changes indicative of botulism or tetanus. Once infected, the child becomes ill and often dies within 4-14 days of age from tetanus toxemia. These differences were due to the fact that men receive a booster dose against tetanus toxoid on entering military service. Only 6 of these 13 work-related cases were reported as having received any previous tetanus vaccination. The high levels of susceptibility to tetanus and diphtheria have two main causes. A consequence is that there is a diminished, though usually effective, response to several vaccines including hepatitis, tetanus and influenza. Twenty-one patients developed tetanus after other reported injuries or potential risk factors for exposure. The completeness of these data for tetanus should be high, as nearly all diagnosed cases would be admitted to hospital. There is a crucial role for reference laboratories in confirmation of botulism and tetanus and in speciation of non-perfringens clostridia. Whether this was due to an overall improvement in standards of care or specifically to diminution in the incidence of neonatal tetanus is uncertain. Of the 91 cases with a vaccination history, only 1 individual, who had a mild clinical infection, had received the recommended 5 tetanus vaccinations. Consequently, prevalence of tetanus toxoid antibodies can be used as a parameter to assess the effects of vaccination. These examples are from corpora and from sources on the web.
