Аннотация
Our report describes the characteristics of patients admitted to the intensive care unit of the National Hospital of Samoa during the 2019-2020 measles epidemic. The study design was a retrospective review of clinical records; the age range was 2 months to 51 years, with the majority of cases in the 2-23 month age group (71%). Vaccination status was unknown or unrecorded for 17 (24%). Of the 54 (75%) who were not fully vaccinated, 35 (65%) did not survive. Almost all (98%) presented with multiple complications on admission, mostly pneumonia (91%). The mortality rate was 61%, implying a low survival rate particularly among young infants and toddlers, even when optimal care was available and administered.
