Viewpoint: Adult infective encephalitis early diagnosis and treatment is imperative

Adult infective encephalitis tends to be managed inadequately largely due to investigative modalities that are non-specific in the early disease process. It is therefore critical that new blood and cerebrospinal fluid tests be added to the list of investigations that can lead to a diagnosis of infective encephalitis early, as delay increases morbidity and mortality.
