Dengue Contents Introduction Fact Sheet Images Slides NEW! Information for Health Care Providers Dengue Fever Information for Travelers CDC Dengue Fever Home Page Perspectives Image: The stylets (needle-like structures) and proboscis (elongated mouth) of an Aedes aegypti feeding. Dengue viruses are transmitted during the feeding process. Dengue and dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) are caused by one of four closely related, but antigenically distinct, virus serotypes (DEN-1, DEN-2, DEN-3, and DEN-4), of the genus Flavivirus . Infection with one of these serotypes does not provide cross-protective immunity, so persons living in a dengue-endemic area can have four dengue infections during their lifetimes. Dengue is primarily a disease of the tropics, and the viruses that cause it are maintained in a cycle that involves humans and Aedes aegypti , a domestic, day-biting mosquito that prefers to feed on humans. Infection with dengue viruses produces a spectrum of clinical illness ranging from a nonspecific viral syndrome to severe and fatal hemorrhagic disease. Important risk factors for DHF include the strain and serotype of the infecting virus, as well as the age, immune status, and genetic predisposition of the patient. History of Dengue The first reported epidemics of dengue fever occurred in 1779-1780 in Asia, Africa, and North America; the near simultaneous occurrence of outbreaks on three continents indicates that these viruses and their mosquito vector have had a worldwide distribution in the tropics for more than 200 years. During most of this time, dengue fever was considered a benign, nonfatal disease of visitors to the tropics. Generally, there were long intervals (10-40 years) between major epidemics, mainly because the viruses and their mosquito vector could only be transported between population centers by sailing vessels.

Symptomer Dengue feber giver høj feber, udslet, hovedpine og muskelsmerter som ved en alvorlig influenza. Diagnose Blodprøve som sendes til et laboratorium til analyse. Behandling Der er ingen behandling mod virus. Forebyggelse Dengue forebygges ved at undgå at blive stukket af myg. Man kan nedsætte risiko for myggestik ved at sprøjte boligen indendørs med et insektmiddel. Mere om dengue feber Der findes 4 forskellige typer dengue virus og infektion med én type beskytter ikke mod de andre. Man kan derfor blive smittet med dengue feber mere end en gang.

Department of Medical Entomology Dengue Overview Natural History Symptoms Laboratory Diagnosis ... bottom of page Overview Currently, dengue is the most important viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes afflicting humans in a world context. Clinical symptoms range from mild fevers, to a severe and potentially life threatening haemorrhagic disease. Source reduction of the breeding habitats of the major mosquito vector, Aedes aegypti , is the best form of control. Natural History The normal cycle of dengue infection is considered to be human - mosquito - human. From feeding on an infected and viraemic human, the female mosquito is able to transmit the dengue virus after an incubation period of 8-10 days wherein virus infection, replication and dissemination result in infection of the salivary glands making the mosquito infective for life. In Australia epidemics of dengue occurred in the late 19th century and early 20th century. Australia was considered to be free of local dengue following 1955 (when there had been a large outbreak in Townsville), but in 1981 a major outbreak with an estimated 3,000 infections occurred in northern Queensland, presumably initiated by an infected traveller. In Australia, there are three possible vectors:

There may also be gastritis with some combination of associated abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea. The classical dengue fever lasts about six to seven days with a smaller peak of fever at the trailing end of the fever (the so-called "biphasic pattern"). Clinically, the platelet count will drop until the patient is afebrile.

Dengue fever hub Dengue fever is a viral disease carried by the Aedes mosquitos. It is characterized by sudden onset, high fever, severe headache, joint and muscle pain and rash. Nausea and vomiting, loss of appetite, and altered taste sensation are common. A rash may appear 3 to 4 days after onset of fever and may spread from the torso to the arms, legs, and face. The disease is usually benign and self-limiting after about 7 days. Dengue may also present as a severe and fatal hemorrhagic disease, called dengue hemorrhagic fever.

EL DENGUE Por la Doctora Patricia Mónica Sartor ¿Qué es? Es una grave enfermedad viral transmitida por la picadura del mosquito Aedes aegypti Se presenta en dos formas: fiebre de dengue y fiebre hemorrágica de dengue. La fiebre de dengue es una grave enfermedad de tipo gripal que afecta a los niños mayores y a los adultos, pero rara vez causa la muerte. La fiebre hemorrágica de dengue (FHD) es otra forma más grave, en la que pueden sobrevenir hemorragias y a veces un estado de choque, que lleva a la muerte. En los niños es sumamente grave. Las personas que teman haber contraído FHD o dengue deberán acudir inmediatamente al médico. La fiebre hemorrágica de dengue es una enfermedad mortífera para las personas y el diagnóstico temprano, seguido del oportuno tratamiento puede prevenir la muerte. Si no se aplica inmediatamente el tratamiento adecuado, el enfermo puede caer en estado de choque y morir. Los síntomas de la fiebre de dengue varían según la edad y el estado general de salud del paciente. Los lactantes y los niños pequeños pueden presentar un cuadro de fiebre y erupción "sarampionoide", difícil de distinguir de la gripe, el sarampión, el paludismo, la hepatitis infecciosa y otras enfermedades febriles. Los niños mayores y los adultos pueden tener síntomas análogos o un cuadro sintomático variable entre leve y gravísimo. Características de la fiebre de dengue: Aparición brusca de fiebre alta.

Multimedia Media centre Location: WHO WHO sites Media centre Fact sheets ... printable version Fact sheet N°117 Revised April 2002 Dengue and dengue haemorrhagic fever Dengue is a mosquito-borne infection which in recent years has become a major international public health concern. Dengue is found in tropical and sub-tropical regions around the world, predominantly in urban and semi-urban areas. Dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF), a potentially lethal complication, was first recognized in the 1950s during the dengue epidemics in the Philippines and Thailand, but today DHF affects most Asian countries and has become a leading cause of hospitalisation and death among children in several of them. There are four distinct, but closely related, viruses that cause dengue. Recovery from infection by one provides lifelong immunity against that serotype but confers only partial and transient protection against subsequent infection by the other three. There is good evidence that sequential infection increases the risk of more serious disease resulting in DHF. Prevalence The global prevalence of dengue has grown dramatically in recent decades. The disease is now endemic in more than 100 countries in Africa, the Americas, the Eastern Mediterranean, South-east Asia and the Western Pacific. South-east Asia and the Western Pacific are most seriously affected. Before 1970 only nine countries had experienced DHF epidemics, a number that had increased more than four-fold by 1995.
