Abstract

This literature provides information on the meningitis disease in the last 10 years. That is, the microbiological etiology, epidemiology, clinic presentation of the disease, modern diagnostic methods and preventive measures are described in detail. This article aims to enhance the understanding of meningitis and to highlight the most current updates that describe outbreaks of meningitis and the subsequent investigations. We also described the current diagnosis methods such as such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing, fully automated US FDA-approved molecular assays, CE-marked diagnostic assays as well as classical ones: lumbar puncture and Computer tomography and finally treatment methods of the disease: immediate priorities, before and on arrival to hospital and all necessary antibiotics.
