Clinical Features of Dengue Fever
Incubation period: 3-14 days
Febrile phase
Symptoms: 2-7 days
• generalized body ache (+) Tourniquet test

(+) Progressive decrease in total white cell
• Headache count
• retro-orbital pain
• facial flushing
• sore throat, hyperemic pharynx
• macular or maculopapular rash

Critical Phase
Day 3-7
Increase in capillary permeability in parallel

with increasing hematocrit levels may occur
The period of clinically significant plasma

leakage usually lasts 24–48 hours,
Recovery Phase
Gradual improvement and stabilization of the hemodynamic status.

Which patients warrant admission?
Shortness of breath
Irritability or drowsiness
Pleural effusion
Abdominal pain
Melena
Elevated hematocrit
Decreased or decreasing platelet count

skin
Extremities Warm and Pink Cool peripheries Cold and clammy
Peripheral pulse volume Good volume Weak and thread Feeble or absent
Heart Rate Normal for age Tachycardia Severe tachycardia with
bradycardia in late shock
Hemodynamic Assessment

Narrowing pulse Unrecordable blood

Respiratory Rate Normal for age Tachypnea Metabolic acidosis
hypopnea/ Kussmaul’s
breathing
Fluid Therapy
Ambulatory patients
Oral intake of oral rehydration solution, fruit juice and other fluids containing electrolytes
and sugar to replace losses from fever and vomiting.
Fluids containing high sugar or glucose should be avoided because they can exacerbate
hyperglycemia of physiological stress from dengue
Dengue fever with warning signs but without shock,
The recommendation is to give isotonic solutions such as 0.9% Saline or Ringer’s Lactate.

There is insufficient evidence to recommend prophylactic platelet transfusion in children with dengue who have low platelet counts but who have no
significant bleeding.
There is insufficient data to show that platelet transfusion prevents progression to severe bleeding or reduces risk of subsequent bleeding, hastens
platelet recovery, reduces hospital stay, or decrease risk of mortality.
When do we discharge dengue patients?
Discharge Criteria
ALL must be present:
No fever for 48 hours

Improvement in clinical status
Increasing trend of platelet count
Stable hematocrit without intravenous fluids

• (+) cross-reaction with DENV-1, -3, and -4 NS1 to varying extents.
• All samples from naïve and preimmune vaccinees completely abrogated DENV-2 NS1-
induced hyperpermeability and cross-inhibited hyperpermeability induced by DENV-1, -3,
and -4 NS1.
• Inhibition of NS1-induced hyperpermeability correlated with NS1-specific IgG
concentrations.
• Postvaccination sera also prevented NS1-induced degradation of endothelial glycocalyx
components.
