5.1 Dengue Flashcards
An acute febrile disease in the tropical countries, that causes fever and joint pain
A mosquito-borne disease
Dengue
Dengue fever can also called:
Breakbone fever
Hemorrhagic Fever
Dandy fever
Which of the following is not true?
None
Dengue is caused by what mosquito?
genus Aedes
aedes aegypti and aedes albopictus
is a fatal manifestation with bleeding diathesis and hypovoloemic shock
Dengue Hemorrhagic fever
Most common Aedes for Dengue?
aedes aegypti
Phases of Dengue hemorrhagic fever where the virus is deposited in the skin by the vector, within few days viremia occurs, lasting until the 5th day for the symptoms to show
Initial phase
Phases of Dengue hemorrhagic fever where within 24 hours before, signs of plasma leakage appear along with the development of hemorrhagic symptoms
Hemorrhagic symptoms
Phases of Dengue hemorrhagic fever where results hemoconcentration and serous effusions and can lead to circulatory collapse
Vascular leakage
Phases of Dengue hemorrhagic fever where if untreated, it might lead to dengue shock syndrome
Progression
A genus of single-stranded RNA virus
Flavivirus
A day-biting mosquitos of the genus aedes that breeds in stagnant water
It has white fots at the base of its wings, with white bands on the legs
Aedes aegypti
What is the incubation period for this dengue?
3-10 days

Damage to lymph and blood vessels
Bleeding
Enlargement of the liver

Potential clinical issues: Dehydration
Laboratory changes: Hematocrit (Decrease)
Serology and Virology: Viraemia
Febrile phase
What phases of dengue cause the following:
Temp: Starts to lower down
Potential clinical issues: shock, bleeding, organ impairment
Laboratory changes: Hematocrit (Rise), platelets (Decrease)
Serology and Virology: IgG and IgM starts to rise
Critical phase
What phases of dengue cause the following:
Temp: Starts to increase ( goes back to normal)
Potential clinical issues: Reabsorption, fluid overload
Laboratory changes: Hematocrit (Return to normal), platelets (Increase)
Serology and Virology: IgG and IgM keeps rises
Recovery phase
Isolation of the dengue virus from serum, plasma, leukocytes, or autopsy samples
Dengue Virus isolation
Demonstration of a fourfold or greater change in reciprocal immunoglobulin or IgM antibody titer to one or more dengue virus antigen in paired serum samples
Immunoglobulin titers
