Pediatric Primary Immune Deficiencies range from selective IgA deficiency to Severe Combined Immune deficiency (SCID). There are over 70 recognized forms of primary immune deficiencies. PID's can be inherited (x-linked). Primary Immune Deficiency is a deficiency in one or more immune globulin or blood antibody levels. Pediatric PID patients are treated with frequent doses of antibiotics, many have permanently inserted IV devices, often have accompanying autoimmune diseases, gastrointestinal diseases as well as pulmonary disease. Many are receiving intravenous immune globulin every 3-4 weeks to replace the antibodies and cells that are deficient in their immune system. Many children with primary immune deficiencies are restricted in their environment and sometimes home schooled to avoid contagious situations. If a child is diagnosed at birth or soon after with a severe combined immune deficiency they can receive a bone marrow transplant with hopes of reconstituting their missing immune system. Many children with SCID are not diagnosed in time and die before their 1st birthday. This site hopes to focus on the education of primary immune diseases in children and their particular situations. We call them our "PID Pumpkins".

About Primary Immune Deficiencies What is a Primary Immune Deficiency Disease? Primary immune deficiency diseases are disorders in which part of the body's immune system is missing or does not function properly. In contrast to secondary immune deficiency disease in which the immune system is compromised by factors outside the immune system, such as viruses or chemotherapy, the primary immune deficiency diseases are caused by intrinsic or genetic defects in the immune system. There are a wide variety of primary immune deficiencies. The World Health Organization recognizes nearly 100 primary immune deficiency disease including X-linked Agammaglobulinemia (Bruton's Disease), Common Variable Immune Deficiency, Selective IgA Deficiency, and Severe Combined Immune Deficiency (boy-in-the-bubble disease). Some disorders, such as Selective IgA Deficiency can be quite common, occurring as often as 1/500 to 1/1000 individuals. Others, such as Severe Combined Immune Deficiency, may be as rare as one individual affected per million. Untreated primary immune deficiencies may be characterized by frequent life-threatening infections and debilitating illnesses. Because of advances in our medical understanding and treatment of primary immune deficiency diseases, individuals who in the past would not have survived childhood are now able to live nearly normal lives. Many individuals affected by primary immune deficiency diseases require life long therapies including intravenous gamma globulin infusions, antibiotic therapies, or bone marrow transplantation. The Immune Deficiency Foundation is dedicated to improving the diagnosis and treatment of primary immune deficiency diseases through research and education.

In most cases, however, those individuals must wait five months for disability benefits to begin and an additional two years before Medicare benefits can begin. Mathematica Policy Research, a Princeton-based policy studies institute, has released a report estimating that there were 1.26 million SSDI beneficiaries in the Medicare waiting period as of January 2002. Senator Jeff Bingaman (D-NM) is preparing to introduce legislation that would phase out the Medicare waiting period over the next 10 years.

13. IMMUNE DEFICIENCIES-Medfacts-National Jewish Medical And Research Center immune deficiencies MedFact From National Jewish Medical and Research Center 1 Respiratory Hospital in America. immune deficiencies. http://www.nationaljewish.org/medfacts/immune.html

IMMUNE DEFICIENCIES Our immune system is the body's defense against infections and other foreign invaders. Infections can result from being exposed to bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites which are in our environment. Fortunately, most of these invaders never get past the body's natural barriers such as the skin, hair, secretions of the stomach and the mucus linings of the nose and lungs. Occasionally, a few do break through the natural barriers and are confronted by our immune system. The immune system has two major functions: 1. To recognize substances that are foreign to the body, and 2. To react to them. An immune system that is functioning adequately may defend the body from infectious microorganisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites) and protect the body from the development of tumors and cancer. The two mechanisms within the body that provide these defenses are the specific immune response involving the T cells, B cells and immunoglobulins and the nonspecific responses. Unfortunately, some individuals have a weakened or absent immune system that is unable to recognize and react to foreign substances. The immune system's ability to kill invading microorganisms and limit the spread of infections may not be functioning well.

The SCID Homepage Lymphocyte Severe Combined Immunodeficiency SCID Severe Combined Immunodeficiency , is a primary immune deficiency "This once-fatal disease should be now seen as a pediatric emergency, a condition that needs immediate diagnosis and treatment. says Dr. Rebecca Buckley, chief of Duke's division of pediatric allergy and immunology. "Early diagnosis of SCID is rare because doctors do not routinely perform a test in newborns to count white blood cells. Such a blood test could pick up children with SCID as well as those with other serious immune deficiencies that would not be apparent until the child developed an infection. A simple blood test could allow us to treat, and most likely cure, SCID in an infant at a reasonable cost. If found later, less effective treatment can run into the millions." Buckley states, "What we're saying is that essentially every baby with SCID could be cured if diagnosed early enough. SCID should be considered a pediatric emergency." SCID is often called "bubble boy disease". SCID became widely known during the 1970's and 80's, when the world learned of David Vetter, a boy with X-linked SCID, who lived for 12 years in a plastic, germ-free bubble.
