Dengue fever, dengue haemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome are distinct clinical forms of an infection that is caused by Dengue Virus, a member of the Flaviviridae family. All four well characterized serotypes of the virus...
متن کاملLaboratory diagnosis of dengue virus infection: current and future perspectives in clinical diagnosis and public health.
Since no protective vaccine or specific treatments are available for dengue fever/dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF), accurate diagnosis is critical for the early initiation of specific preventive health measures to curtail epidemic spread and reduce economic losses. Commonly used diagnosis methods for confirming dengue infection involve virus isolation, detection of virus antigen or RNA in plasma ...

متن کاملLaboratory diagnosis of primary and secondary dengue infection.
BACKGROUND Dengue fever is routinely detected in many laboratories using commercial tests for the specific detection of dengue IgM antibodies. OBJECTIVES We have studied the sensitivity of IgM antibody detection in paired serum samples of 43 patients with either with primary dengue (PD) or secondary dengue (SD). STUDY DESIGN Two consecutive samples were drawn from 23 Vietnamese and 20 Germa...
متن کاملHarmonization of laboratory testing - Current achievements and future strategies.
Harmonization in laboratory testing is more far-reaching than merely analytical harmonization. It includes all aspects of the total testing process from the "pre-pre-analytical" phase through analysis to the "post-post-analytical" phase. Harmonizing the pre-analytical phase requires use of standardized operating procedures for correct test selection, sample collection and handling, while standa...
