According to CDC's case definition, the following conditions must be met for consideration as a RS case: 1) acute, noninflammatory encephalopathy documented a) by alteration in the level of consciousness and, if available, a record of cerebrospinal fluid containing ≤8 leukocytes per mm3 or b) by histologic specimen demonstrating cerebral edema without perivascular or meningeal inflammation; 2) hepatopathy documented either by a liver biopsy or autopsy considered to be diagnostic of RS or by a threefold or greater rise in the levels of either serum aspartate aminotransferase, serum alanine aminotransferase, or serum ammonia; and 3) no more reasonable explanation for the cerebral and hepatic abnormalities.
