Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is also one of the infectious diseases that often cause extraordinary events. Low awareness to maintain environmental cleanliness and lack public knowledge about eradicating mosquito nests prevent Fever. This study aims identify relationship between level family attitudes dengue hemorrhagic fever sufferers regarding eradication (PSN) in work area Curahdami Health ...

BACKGROUND The incidence of dengue hemorrhagic fever is increasing among the adult population living in endemic areas. The disease carries a 0.73% fatality rate for the general population, but what happens when the disease strikes a special subpopulation group, the obstetrics? Perhaps the important question specific to this special subpopulation revolves around the right time and mode of delive...

Dengue fever, one of the common endemic viral fevers, often presents with fever, rash, and mild liver dysfunction. However, plasma leakage induced by dengue virus infection can lead to dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome, and it can cause severe complications including liver failure and encephalopathy. Infection of dengue virus with other pathogens is an unusual but serious compl...

Secondary dengue infections are frequently associated with increased risk for dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. Surprisingly, we observed no dengue hemorrhagic fever cases among 353 hospitalized dengue-infected patients including 212 with primary, and 141 with secondary dengue 1 infection in China. To explore virological and immunological mechanisms which may account for this ...

Atypical manifestations of dengue fever are rising but they may be under reported. In dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF), cardiac rhythm abnormalities observed were ventricular arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation and atrioventricular block. Here we report an 11 year old boy who presented with dengue fever and developed bradycardia and hypotension. His electrocardiogram (ECG), during the bradycardia, sh...

Background Dengue is a systemic infection with a wide clinical spectrum including asymptomatic, mild undifferentiated dengue fever (DF), dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and dengue with shock syndrome (DSS). Detection of dengue NS1 antigen (Ag) in acute infection is a valuable tool for early diagnosis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the sensitivity of the Platelia NS1 Ag kit (BioRad®) ...

INTRODUCTION Dengue viral infections are among the most important mosquito-borne diseases of the Indian subcontinent and have become a major global public health concern. Spread of disease has led to increased recognition of atypical manifestations apart from the classical clinical features of dengue infection. METHODOLOGY A cross-sectional study of admitted patients suspected to have dengue ...

The mechanisms contributing to bleeding complications in dengue hemorrhagic fever were studied by investigating the pattern of activation of the coagulation and fibrinolytic systems in 50 children with severe dengue hemorrhagic fever. Thirteen patients (26%) died, and activation of coagulation was most pronounced in the deceased group. Fibrinolysis was also activated, but this activation was re...

Dengue fever has become a major health problem especially in tropical countries. Nowadays, the incidence has been increasing among adults and more cases of dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever in pregnancy are being reported. A sound knowledge of its diagnosis and management plays a vital role for an obstetrician, particularly regarding the mode of delivery. Supportive care with analgesics...
