Q

how do you make an antenatal diagnosis of zika?

A

serology (IgM, IgG, PRNT)
- PRNT is confirmatory test
have to do Dengue serology at the same time
PCR in blood and urine
- remains positive for 3-7d after symptom onset

Q

what is the workup for zika in a newborn

A

serology

(zika IgM on CSF)

PCR
- placental and umbilical cord tissue
- serum, urine, CSF (if LP done)
