State Health Depart-
ment News Notes
Austin, Sept. 18—Rheumatic fev-
er and its complication, rheumatic
heart disease, probably disables more
school age children than any other
cause except accidents, declared Dr.
Geo. W. Cox, State Health Officer.
Rheumatic fever is a well known
enemy of children, still physicians do
not know exactly what causes it. It
usually appears about two weeks_af-
ter an infection caused by germs of
the streptococcus such as tonsillitis,
scarlet fever or sore throat. Some
j children appear more susceptible
| than others and this trait seems to
I run in families. Rheumatic fever
can occur in any surroundings, but
it is most common among children
living in poor and crowded homes,
and among children who do not get
enough of what is called the protec-
tive foods such as milk, eggs, meat
butter, fresh fruits, vegetables and
the like.
Rheumatic fever actually has
has no symptoms that are all its
own. A few of the group of symp-
toms the doctor looks for are: per-
sistent fever, poor appetite, tiredness
failure to gain weight, paleness, re-
peated nosebleeding and especially
pain and inflamation that moves
from joint to joint.
Rheumatic fever is a disease that
may affect any part of the body—
skin, joints, blood vessels, heart or
brain—but usually it is the heart
that is most seriously affected. Un-
less they are prevented by good
management, the acute attacks have
a tendancy to come back again and
again. When this happens, the val-
ves of the heart are usually affected:
Sometimes so slightly that the child
is not handicapped, sometimes so
seriously that the child dies. The
present day treatment of rheumatic
fever is directed at two things.
First, reducing the risk of heart dam-
age from an acute attack by bed
rest and appropriate treatment with
drugs. Second, doing everything
possible to prevent another attack
after recovery from the first.
