Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1977
While the incidence of clinical tetanus had decreased greatly, efforts to eradicate the disease will depend mainly upon continued stress on prophylaxis. Recent cases demonstrate the need for both continued vigil in prophylaxis and sensitivity to the early signs of the clinical disease.

Abstract Clostridium tetani is a Gram-positive spore-forming anaerobic bacillus able to infect and cause disease in both humans and animals. The bacterium is highly sensitive to oxygen but can survive in the environment as an extremely resistant metabolically inactive spore. Under suitable anaerobic conditions the spore germinates and

Tetanus is a preventable disease with proper immunization. The marked decline in the incidence over the past several decades has resulted from widespread use of tetanus prophylaxis and improved wound management in the emergency department. Emergency physicians are among the most frequent providers of tetanus vaccination. We can stress the importance of

Tetanus is een ernstige maar gelukkig zeldzame ziekte. Sinds het invoeren van de vaccinatie tegen tetanus is het aantal ziektegevallen sterk gedaald. In de periode 1984-1996 werden in Nederland in totaal dertig gevallen van tetanus bij de inspectie aangegeven. Dit succes is het gevolg van een zeer effectief vaccinatieprogramma.

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 1979
Forty-eight babies were treated for neonatal tetanus and there were ten deaths. Twenty-seven patients were treated with neuromuscular blockade, nasotracheal intubation and intermittent positive pressure ventilation. In this group there were five deaths and three of these were the direct or indirect result of respiratory complications.
