Ringelröteln bei Kindern (Erythema infectiosum) Dr. Petra Kraml Dr. Peter Voitl Was sind Ringelröteln? Ringelröteln ist eine Infektionskrankheit, die durch Viren (Parvo-Viren) verursacht wird. Sie tritt im Winter und im Frühjahr gehäuft auf. An Kindergärten oder Schulen kann es zu richtigen Epidemien kommen. Die Infektion ist am charakteristischen Hautausschlag in Form eines Schmetterlings auf Wangen und Nase erkennbar. Die Krankheit betrifft vor allem Kinder im Schulalter zwischen fünf und 15 Jahren, aber auch andere Altersgruppen können sich anstecken. Eltern kleinerer Kinder und Personen, die mit Kindern arbeiten, tragen ein besonders großes Risiko, an Ringelröteln zu erkranken. Wer einmal an Ringelröteln erkrankt ist, besitzt lebenslangen Schutz gegen die Krankheit. Wie werden Ringelröteln übertragen? Die Viren werden durch Tröpfcheninfektion beim Niesen, Husten oder Sprechen übertragen. Von der Ansteckung bis zum Ausbruch der Krankheit (Inkubationszeit) vergehen 13 bis 18 Tage. Die Krankheit ist bereits einige Tage vor Beginn des Hautausschlags bis zu dessen Ende ansteckend.

Fifth Disease (Erythema Infectiosum) Fact Sheet What is erythema infectiosum? Erythema infectiosum is a viral illness caused by human parvovirus B19. It is also called fifth disease, derived from the assignment of numbers to the six most common childhood rash illnesses. In the United States, the prevalence of B19 antibodies ranges from 5% to 10% in children less than 5 years old to greater than 50% in adults. What are the symptoms of erythema infectiosum? The manifestation of B19 infection ranges from inapparent, asymptomatic infection to a two-phase illness. Mild symptoms consisting of a low grade fever, headache, and muscle aches may develop within a week after infection. Within roughly 10 days later, the characteristic slapped cheek rash develops. The rash may spread to the extremities. In adults, arthralgias and arthritis are the most common symptoms. Are there any complications to B19 infections? Generally, complete recovery is the rule. People with anemia such as sickle cell anemia are at risk for developing transient aplastic crisis (TAC). The aplasia generally lasts 7 to 10 days. Rash is often not present in children with TAC. If a woman is infected in the first half of pregnancy there is a risk of fetal infection. B19 infection in pregnancy can lead to hydrops fetalis (extensive edema of the fetus) and fetal death in less than 10% of infections. Infection in an immunocompromised person can lead to severe, chronic anemia. How is B19 spread?

The human parvovirus (B19) is now recognized as the etiologic agent of a childhood exanthem (fifth disease or erythema infectiosum) as well as of the transient aplastic crisis which occurs in the setting of a chronic hemolytic anemia. It has also been associated with arthritis and intrauterine infection in adults. B19 is a small (25 nm), nonenveloped, icosahedral virion with single-stranded DNA. It is the prototype autonomously replicating parvovirus pathogenic for humans.

Erythema infectiosum is also called 'slapped cheek disease' or 'fifth disease'. It is a viral infection which mainly affects children between the ages of 5 and 15. However, it sometimes affects people in other age groups. Parents, or people working with children are the adult groups most likely to be infected. The most striking symptom is a red rash on the cheeks. There is no treatment, but the illness resolves by itself. How is Erythema infectiosum contracted? Erythema infectiosum is caused by a virus called parvovirus B19. The virus is transferred from one person to another through airborne droplets from the nose and throat, for example when coughing or sneezing. An infected pregnant woman can transfer the virus to her unborn baby. The incubation period for parvovirus B19 is between one and three weeks and the person will be infectious for about a week before the illness actually becomes apparent. By the time symptoms are present, the person is no longer infectious.

New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene Bureau of Communicable Disease Fifth Disease (erythema infectiosum, human parvovirus B19 infections) What is fifth disease? Fifth disease, a mild, usually nonfebrile rash illness is caused by a human parvovirus (B19). For many years, fifth disease was viewed as an unimportant illness of children. Recently, studies have shown that the virus may be responsible for serious complications in certain individuals. No accurate estimate of disease occurrence is available in New York City because fifth disease is not a reportable condition. Who gets fifth disease? Anyone can be affected, but the disease seems to occur more often in elementary school children. How is the virus spread? The virus is spread by exposure to airborne droplets from the nose and throat of infected people. What are the symptoms of fifth disease and when do they appear? One to two weeks after exposure, some children will experience a low grade fever and tiredness. By the third week, a red rash generally appears on the cheeks giving a "slapped face" appearance. The rash may then extend to the body and tends to fade and reappear. Sometimes, the rash is lacy in appearance and may be itchy. Some children may have vague signs of illness or no symptoms at all. When and for how long is a person able to spread the disease?

About Parvovirus B19 Fifth Disease Infection and Pregnancy REVB Respiratory and Enteric Viruses Branch Home Fifth Disease What is "fifth disease? " Fifth disease is a mild rash illness that occurs most commonly in children. The ill child typically has a "slapped-cheek" rash on the face and a lacy red rash on the trunk and limbs. Occasionally, the rash may itch. An ill child may have a low-grade fever, malaise, or a "cold" a few days before the rash breaks out. The child is usually not very ill, and the rash resolves in 7 to 10 days. What causes fifth disease? Fifth disease is caused by infection with human parvovirus B19. This virus infects only humans. Pet dogs or cats may be immunized against "parvovirus," but these are animal parvoviruses that do not infect humans. Therefore, a child cannot "catch" parvovirus from a pet dog or cat, and a pet cat or dog cannot catch human parvovirus B19 from an ill child. Can adults get fifth disease?
