Ehrlichiosis

The Ehrlichia genus consists of several species of obligate intracellular gram-negative pleomorphic coccobacilli that infect humans and other mammals through tick bites. Clinically, Ehrlichia infections share many symptoms and geographic distribution with rickettsial infections. Therefore, it is crucial to consider Ehrlichia infections when evaluating patients with flu-like illnesses in endemic areas. This activity reviews the conditions under which Ehrlichia infections should be included in the differential diagnosis, outlines the appropriate assessment and treatment strategies, and emphasizes the importance of an interprofessional team in the comprehensive care of patients affected by this condition.
