Definisi
Orang dengan batuk terus menerus (batuk paroksismus) yang berlangsung minimal selama 2
minggu dengan ditemukan minimal 1 tanda berikut:
a. Batuk rejan pada saat inspirasi atau napas dalam (inspiratory whoop)
b. Muntah setelah batuk (post-tussive vomiting)
c. Muntah tanpa ada penyebab yang jelas
Atau
Kasus apneu (berhenti nafas) dengan atau tanpa sianosis pada anak usia <1 tahun dengan
batuk tanpa ada batasan durasi.
Atau
Jika dokter menduga pertusis pada pasien dengan batuk tanpa ada batasan durasi
The World Health Organization diagnostic criteria had a low sensitivity (15%), but high specificity (92%)

• leading to diagnostic confusion with bronchitis, sinusitis, atypical

Epidemic exposure

Lack of immunization, time elapsed from vaccination

Close contact with an infected individual

Age, pregnancy

immunological status
 • Culture is most
sensitive if
sample collection
is conducted
within 2 weeks of
onset.
• The PCR assay is
more sensitive
and allows

collection up to 4
weeks after

Severe Pertussis In Childhood
In the 2000s, the concept of malignant pertussis was
established, being characterized by severe and high lethality,
defined by the presence of acute respiratory failure, pulmonary
hypertension and hyperleukocytosis above 50,000/mm3.
Patient’s profile with severe pertussis
• The median age of patients was 2 months
(IQR 1-4 months)
• 90.3% of the patients aged < 6 months
• 56.9% of the patients aged < 3 months.
• Mortality 34.2% à <6 weeks (76.9%)
Pathogenesis
• Hyperleukocytosis causes blood hyper-
viscosity and increases pulmonary vascular
resistance, leading to:
• pulmonary hypertension
• hemodynamic collapse
• Death due to hypoxemia and refractory
shock

 Risk factors associated with death and/or neurological sequele

• Less than 6 month of age (esp. < 2 mo)

• Change in mental state

• Seizure

• Apnoea (OR 23.722, 95%CI 2.796-201.26, P = 0.004)

• Bradycardia during episodes of cough the greatest associations with death in

infants with severe pertussis admitted
• hyperleukocytosis (OR 63.708, 95%CI 3.574-1135.674, P
to the PICU.
= 0.005)

• Pulmonary hypertension (OR 26.109, 95%CI 1.800- Seizures and pulmonary hypertension as
isolated predictive factors
378.809, P = 0.017) for death
• Associated with pneumonia & comorbidities

• Shock

Kejadian luar biasa (KLB)
Definisi operasional

• Suatu wilayah kab/kota dinyatakan KLB pertusis jika ditemukan satu suspek pertusis dengan konfirmasi
laboratorium PCR/kultur positif

atau

• Jika ditemukan Suspek Pertusis yang mempunyai hubungan epidemiologi dengan kasus PCR/kultur positif

• Ditetapkan oleh Kadinkes Koka atau Kadinkes Povisnsi atau Kemenkes sesuai dengan Permenkes 1501/2010

Pencabutan status KLB pertusis dapat ditetapkan Jika di suatu wilayah tidak ditemukan lagi kasus pertusis
selama 2 kali masa inkubasi terpanjang dihitung sejak dari kasus terakhir (28 hari)

Take home messages
• Pertusis adalah penyakit infeksi akibat B. pertussis yang
menyebabkan morbiditas dan mortalitas tinggi
• Penularan tinggi melalui droplet
• Terapi umumnya terlambat karena diberi saat stage paroksismal
• Perlu surveilans/PE apabila ditemukan index case – berikan antibiotis
profilaksis dan lengkapi imunisasi difteri
• Pencegahan lebih baik daripada mengobati – dengan imunisasi difteri
