Overview
Based on the duration of symptoms, rheumatic fever may be classified into either acute or chronic.[1] Acute rheumatic fever may be characterized by Group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal infection and cardiac lesions. Acute Rheumatic fever is diagnosed by JONES criteria.[2] Chronic rheumatic fever may be characterized by cardiac valvular lesions and mitral stenosis.
Classification
Based on the duration of symptoms and the outcome of the disease, rheumatic fever may be classified into either acute or chronic.[1]
In case of recovery, we are dealing with the complete regression of the clinical symptomatology of ARF, normalized laboratory parameters and no residual changes. Chronic rheumatic diseases of the heart are considered to mean a disease characterized by a cardiac valvular lesion as postinflammatory marginal fibrosis of valvular leaflets or cardiac abnormality (failure and/or stenosis) developed after prior ARF
Acute
Acute rheumatic fever is when the outcome is recovery with:
- Complete regression of the clinical symptoms
- Normalization of the lab parameters
- No residual change
Acute rheumatic fever is generally associated with:[2]
- Group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal pharyngitis
- Lesions in the endocardium, myocardium, or pericardium
- MacCallum plaques
Chronic
Chronic rheumatic fever is generally associated with:
| Types | Association |
|---|---|
| Acute rheumatic fever |
|
| Chronic rheumatic fever |
