C rimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a zoonotic, vector-borne disease caused by a virus in the Bunyaviridae family, of the genus Nairovirus. This disease affects humans and animals very differently. In humans, CCHF can vary from asymptomatic infection to severe haemorrhagic fever, with death occurring in up to 30% of severely ill patients. Many other species of mammals and some birds can...
BACKGROUND Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) is a life threatening acute viral infection that presents significant risk of nosocomial transmission to healthcare workers. AIM Evaluation of CCHF infection prevention and control (IP&C) practices in healthcare facilities that routinely manage CCHF cases in Eurasia. METHODS A cross-sectional CCHF IP&C survey was designed and distributed to ...
BACKGROUND Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne infectious disease that has a considerable mortality risk and is a challenge for the population of endemic rural areas and health care workers. This study investigated the epidemiologic features and main risk factors of CCHF in Samsun Province, Turkey, using CCHF cases diagnosed from 2007 to 2011 recorded by the Samsun Provincial...
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV), a member of the genus Nairovirus of the family Bunyaviridae, causes a severe disease in humans with high mortality rates. In Turkey, the number of patients with CCHF has increased since 2002. Here, we aimed to treat CCHF patients with CCHFV hyperimmunoglobulin. We prepared a CCHFV hyperimmunoglobulin product from 22 individuals who survived CCHF in...
Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is endemic in Turkey, and since 2004 many cases have been reported from different regions of Turkey. There are limited data about the seroprevalence of the disease in household members of patients or persons sharing the same environment. We evaluated seroprevalence of CCHF in the immediate neighbourhood and in household members of patients living in the s...
BACKGROUND Ever since Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever [CCHF] discovered in India, several outbreaks of this disease have been recorded in Gujarat State, India. During the year 2011 to 2015 several districts of Gujarat and Rajasthan state (Sirohi) found to be affected with CCHF including the positivity among ticks and livestock. During these years many infected individuals succumbed to this dise...
BACKGROUND Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is acute viral infection and a major emerging infectious diseases threat, affecting a large geographical area. There is no proven antiviral therapy and it has a case fatality rate of 4-30%. The natural history of disease and outcomes of CCHF in pregnant women is poorly understood. OBJECTIVES To systematically review the characteristics of CCHF...
Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a viral zoonosis, which is usually transmitted via tick bites or close contact with infected blood or tissue. This disease can cause a case fatality rate of up to 25%-30% in humans. CCHF Infection in birds is less documented. An ostrich can reproduce viruses and can also play the role of a mechanical vector, by transporting infected ticks without becomi...
During the Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) outbreak at Tygerberg Hospital a particular problem existed: a simultaneous influenza epidemic complicated the screening of contacts because of its very similar clinical picture to that of early CCHF. The methods of identifying and screening contacts are described. Of 459 listed CCHF contacts, 7 (1,5%) developed the disease; 6 were contacts of ...
BACKGROUND Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) involves the multi-organ systems. The involvement of the heart in adult patients has been described previously. We investigated the electrocardiographic and echocardiographic findings of pediatric patients with CCHF. MATERIAL/METHODS Patients younger than 16 years of age diagnosed with CCHF were enrolled in the study. The diagnosis of CCHF inf...
