An analysis of 62 patients with pyogenic meningitis is presented, 23 (37%) of whom had received pre-diagnosis antibiotic therapy. Positive bacteriological identification could be achieved in 73% of the partially treated group as opposed to 97% in the previously untreated group but otherwise such pre-treatment made little impact on the diagnosis, characteristic cerebrospinal fluid changes sufficient for diagnostic purpose being present in all but one case. The study also fails to demonstrate any advantage of immunoelectroosmophoresis over conventional bacteriology in the problem cases of partially treated bacterial meningitis.
