Management of dengue cases

Dengue is still a recurrent challenge to the global population, without specific antiviral therapy. Clinical management strategies are aimed to mitigate the deaths. The use of blood products in dengue is recommended mainly in cases of bleeding.

Dengue virus serotyping is crucial for clinical management and epidemiology of the disease. As serotype shifts and secondary infection with a heterologous DENV serotype are frequently associated with disease severity, there is a need for sustained monitoring of the circulating serotypes and enhanced surveillance operations to prevent large scale severe dengue outbreaks.

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a common presentation of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) precipitated by various bacterial and viral infections. Dengue infection is no exception for this and can be a precipitating factor for DKA. The presentation of DKA with dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF) has been reported in adults. However, it is very rarely observed in children.

Dengue Fever is a mosquito-borne illness commonly present throughout the tropics. Dengue virus belongs to flaviviridae family and circulates with 4 different serotypes circulating in environment. In India four different serotypes of the virus are seen throughout country. The disease has a wide spectrum from an asymptomatic stage to DHF and DSS. Annually 100 million cases of dengue and a half million cases of DHF occurs worldwide with a case fatality of 0.5% to 3.5%. The combined laboratory interventions with the clinical spectrum can reduce the mortality in disease.

Dengue fever is an acute febrile infectious disease, caused by any of four serotypes. Severe dengue infections may give rise to many complications such as liver failure, disseminated intravascular coagulation, encephalopathy, myocarditis, acute renal failure and haemolytic uraemic syndrome. ST segment and T wave changes in the electrocardiogram together with low ejection fraction and global hypokinesia on radionuclide ventriculography have been found. Hence, this study was intended to assess the cardiac manifestations in dengue fever patients.

Dengue is a mosquito borne viral disease (Priyadarshini et al., 2016). It belongs to the family of Flavivirus. It is transmitted mainly by the bite of Aedes aegypti mosquito. Outbreaks are due to the four serotypes DEN1, DEN2, DEN3, DEN4. Increasing incidence and repeated outbreaks turns this disease as a serious public health problem (Barrera et al., 2002). Urbanization, improper water management and the vector population are the main causes for the spread of the disease. Dengue is a leading causes of hospitalization and death among children (Mistry et al., 2013).
