DEFINITION OF DENGUE FEVER

DHF or dengue hemorrhagic fever is a disease

caused by one of four dengue viruses, including
the dengue virus-1 DEN 1, DEN-2, DEN-3. and
DEN-4. Dengue fever is a contagious disease.
The means of transmission of dengue fever
itself comes from the bite of the Aedesaegypti
and Aedesalbocpictus mosquitoes.
RISK FACTORS FOR DENGUE FEVER

Dengue fever can be triggered by certain risk

factors. Some risk factors for dengue fever,
namely:
• Has had a dengue virus infection before
• Live or travel to the tropics; and
• Infants, children, elderly people, and people
with weak immunity.
• Has been attacked by dengue disease before
CAPTION:
1. Dengue virus attaches and enters the cell
2. The virus fuses in endosomes and RNA is
removed
3. Protein translation
4. RNA viruses do multiplication (replication)
5. Young viruses undergo assembly in the
endoplasmic reticulum
6. Viruses mature and are ready to be released by
vesicles from the Golgi body
7. The virus is released and attacks other cells
SYMPTOMS OF DENGUE FEVER
Symptoms generally occur 4-7 days since
the bite of a mosquito, and can last for 10
days. Some symptoms of dengue fever,
namely:
• HIGH FEVER REACHES 40 DEGREES CELSIUS;
 Severe head pain
PAIN IN THE JOINTS,MUSSCLE
NAUSEAAND VOMITING
DIAGNOSIS OF DENGUE FEVER

Diagnosis of dengue fever will be done by

conducting a physical examination and medical
interview. In addition, supporting examinations,
such as blood tests in the laboratory must also
be done.
COMPLICATIONS OF DENGUE FEVER
When dengue is too late to treat, complications will occur.
Complications of dengue fever or dengue shock syndrome (DSS)
have several symptoms and signs, namely:
• Signs of bleeding, such as nosebleeds, bleeding gums, bleeding
under the skin, black vomiting, coughing up blood, or defecating
with black stools;
• decreased blood pressure;
• Wet and cold skin;
• Weakened pulses;
• The frequency of urination decreases and the amount of urine
that comes out is small;
• dry mouth; and
• Shortness of breath or irregular breathing patterns.Appropriate
and fast treatment must be done when the person has
experienced a DSS. If treatment is not immediately carried out, it
can result in malfunctioning of organs which results in death.
TREATMENT OF DENGUE FEVER
Specific treatments to treat dengue are currently not
available. Treatment aims to overcome the symptoms
and prevent increasingly heavy viral infections. Some
of the efforts that doctors recommend, namely:
• Drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration;
• Get enough rest;
• Consumption of paracetamol, as a relatively safe
heat-lowering drug;
• Pain relievers should be avoided, such as naproxen,
ibuprofen, and aspirin, because they can cause
bleeding complications; and
• Monitor the frequency of urination and the amount of
urine that comes out.
HOW TO TREAT DENGUE FEVER
Treating DHF patients can be eaten by eating
some fruits such as guava juice and vegetables.
Containing vit c. DHF patients also need lots of
fluids. DHF patients will pass the critical period for
24 to 48 hours. This period will determine the
patient's chances of survival. You can also use this
method:
1. Consuming large amounts of liquid
2. Taking fever and pain relievers
3. Eating guava and healthy food that is easily
digested4. Do a total rest
CONCLUSION
DHF or dengue hemorrhagic fever is a disease caused by one of four
dengue viruses, including the dengue virus-1 DEN 1, DEN-2, DEN-3.
and DEN-4. Dengue fever is a contagious disease. The means of
transmission of dengue fever itself comes from the bite of the
Aedesaegypti and Aedesalbocpictus mosquitoes. And can also be
prevented by the following steps:
• Children aged 9-16 years should be vaccinated with dengue, 3 times
with a distance of 6 months;
• Eradicate mosquito nests in two insecticidal fogging fogging intervals
of 1 week;
• Draining water reservoirs, such as bathtubs, at least weekly;
• Closing the water reservoir;
• Recycling items that have the potential to become breeding grounds
for Aedesaegypti mosquitoes;
