APT- FICLQ t,-J F901U j (F ©- - 't17-�� -2- ;r WHAT IS THE INFECTIOUS AGENT? The causative agent, a spirochetal bacterium, Borrelia burgdorferi, has been isolated from the Ixodes dammini tick, as well as from persons with LD. Not all of Ixodes dammini ticks in endemic areas of Massachusetts are infected with this spirochete. Transmission of the bacteria from the tick to a, human; appears to require at least 18 hours of attachment of the tick to occur. Thus, a tick"bite does not necessarily mean that LD will follow, and prompt removal of a tick'will lessen any chance of disease transmission. WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS? Early — The first symptom of LD is usually a skin rash, called erythema chromicum migrans, that occurs at the site of the tick bite. The actual tick bite may go unrecognized. The rash, which begins 3 to 32 days after the, tick bite, begins as a small red area which gradually enlarges, often with partial clearing in the center of the lesion so that it resembles a donut. There may be multiple secondary lesions. The skin lesion is occasionally described as burning or itching. Other skin signs include hives, redness of the cheeks and under the eves (malar rash), swelling of the eyelids with reddening of the whites of the eyes.V•The skin involvement may be accompanied by flu-like symptoms such as fever, headache, stiff neck, sore and aching muscles and joints, fatigue, sore throat and swollen glands. If not treated, these symptoms may resolve on their own over a period of weeks; however, in about 50% of untreated people, the rash may recur, and more a serious later manifestations may follow. If treated with appropriate antibiotics, the skin rash resolves within days, and complications may be avoided. Late — There are three major organ systems involved in later disease manifestations - the joints, the nervous system, and the heart. These manifesta- tions can occur weeks to months after the initial symptoms, although symptoms typically appear 4 to 6 weeks after the initial tick bite. A small number of people with LD may not have the early skin manifestation, and may present only with late manifestations of the disease. Joint manifestations occur in up to 60% of untreated persons. This is an arthritis affecting the large joints, primarily the knee, elbow and wrist, which can move from joint-to-joint, and can become chronic. Neurologic manifestations occur in 10-20% of infected persons. The most common symptoms include severe headache and stiff neck (aseptic meningitis), facial paralysis (or other cranial nerve palsies), and weakness and/or pain of the chest or extremities (radiculoneuritis). These symptoms can persist for weeks, often flucuate in severity, and may respond to intravenous antibiotics. Heart manifestations occur in 6-10% of infected persons. The electrical conduction in the heart may be affected and an inflammation of the heart muscle (myocarditis) may occur. Current medical literature suggests that the heart manifestations may be self-limited. • I 1 • GROUP U Lumbermens Mutual Casualty Company * American Motorists Insurance Company American Manufacturers Mutual Insurance Company • American Protection Insurance Company 150 Newport Avenue, North Quincy, MA 02171-2188 - 6171328-2000 C OARD OF HEALTH OR 05/26/87 OARD OF SELECTME 0Wk , N.
