Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of SJS is approximately 2-7 per 1000,000 individuals per year.[1]
- The incidences of SJS, SJS-TEN, and TEN were found to be a mean 5.3, 0.8, and 0.4 cases per million children per year in the US[2]
- The mean estimated incidences of SJS, SJS/TEN, and TEN were found to be 9.2, 1.6, and 1.9 per million adults per year in the US[3]
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
- Between years 2009-2012, the Mean adjusted mortality was 4.8% for SJS, 19.4% for SJS/TEN, and 14.8% for TEN[4]
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop SJS.
