Pediatrics In Review, 2021
The incidence of acute rheumatic fever (ARF) is 8 to 51 per 100,000 people worldwide. It most commonly affects children 5 to 15 years of age after a group A streptococcal infection. Overcrowding and poor socioeconomic conditions are directly proportional to the incidence of ARF.

Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1993
The diagnosis of acute rheumatic fever has become difficult. A growing number of diseases that were not recognized in the past could fulfill its diagnostic criteria. We emphasize its changing incidence, current knowledge of its pathogenesis, and lesser known clinical features such as pneumonitis, encephalitis and glomerulonephritis.

Pediatric Annals, 2022
Acute rheumatic fever (ARF) and its sequela rheumatic heart disease remain significant causes of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide. When caring for patients originating from a geographic setting where ARF is endemic, a high index of suspicion for ARF is indicated. Early recognition of ARF with the initiation of treatment and

Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 1995
The incidence of RF and RHD in the tropics remains high, with a high proportion of children suffering from carditis with the first attack. Severe, incapacitating haemodynamic disturbances occur early. Many patients are seen with established RHD at their first visit, and the default rate is high.

Rheumatology International, 2011
Through a comprehensive review of the recent findings on rheumatic fever, we intend to propose a new physiopathologic model for this disease. A Medline search was performed for all articles containing the terms rheumatic fever or rheumatic heart disease in title or abstract from 1970 to 2011.

The Nurse Practitioner, 1983
The classic dramatic clinical presentation of acute rheumatic fever (ARF), with high fever, severe carditis and acute polyarthritis, is changing to an asymptomatic, milder form. The cardiac damage potential of the disease remains high. It is the responsibility of the primary care nurse practitioner to 1) provide primary prevention of ARF through ...
