SPOILER ALERT:
NOT HELPFUL
FINDINGS:
There is a metallic fixation rod in the midportion of the right
scapula. Cardiomediastinal contours are normal. Lungs and pleural
spaces are clear
IMPRESSION:
No pneumonia. No other significant finding
FINDINGS:
There are multiple prominent bilateral lymph nodes,
which are likely reactive.

surrounding inflammatory changes. However, cannot
exclude an infected socket. No abscess.

“Most rapidly spreading mosquito-borne viral
disease in the world…”
Dengue Pandemic
• “Imperils” 2-5 billion people living in Tropical and sub-tropical countries
• 50-100 Million infected every year, 500,000 admitted to hospital, 25,000 deaths/
year
• 100 Countries world-wide
• 796 Cases in North America from 2001-2007
• Outbreaks in Texas 2006, Hawaii 2002, Cuba 1977, Singapore 2006 and Florida today
• 16% of febrile travelers may have Dengue
Dengue
• RNA genome Flavivirus with Aedes
vector
• Viral Syndrome
• Partial-immunity leads to more severe
reactions to second infection (DHF/DSS)
• Hemorrhage, Third spacing and organ
failure
• Shock-state due to venous pooling
• Serologic diagnosis with IgM and IgG
• Infants

WHO criteria dengue fever
1. Fever
2. Two or more of the
following clinical symptoms
3. Positive serology or
occurrence with same time
and place as other
confirmed cases of dengue.
"HARMS" Headache
Hemolytic tendencies
(Ecchymoses, purpura)
Arthralgia
Retro orbital pain
Rash
Myalgia
Serology for dengue
WHO criteria for dengue
hemorrhagic fever
1. Thrombocytopenia
(Platelets < 100,000/cu mm)
2. Evidence of plasma leakage
(> 20% rise in hematocrit
>20% drop following fluids
Signs like pleural effusion, ascites,
hypoproteinaema)
3. Signs of hemorrhagic
tendencies
(Positive tourniquet test
Petechie, ecchymoses, purpura
Bleeding from gums
Hematemesis, melena)
4. Fever (Lasting for 2-7 days)
WHO criteria for
dengue shock
syndrome
• All 4 for DHF signs of
circulatory failure.
• The mnemonic is,
"CHIRP" • C: Cold clammy skin
H: Hypotension
R: Restlessness
Rapid and weak pulse
P: Narrow pulse
pressure
Dengue without
warning signs
Dengue with
warning signs
-Abdominal pain or tenderness
-Nausea, vomiting
-Rash
-Aches and pains
-Leukopenia
-Positive tourniquet test
-Persistent vomiting
-Clinical fluid accumulation
(ascites, pleural effusion)
Severe Dengue
Severe Plasma Leakage
leading to:
– Shock (DSS)
– Fluid accumulation with
respiratory distress
-Mucosal bleeding
-Lethargy, restlessness
-Liver enlargement >2 cm
-Laboratory: increase in HCT
concurrent with rapid decrease
in platelet count
**requires strict observation
and medical intervention
Severe Bleeding as
evaluated by clinician
Severe organ involvement
– Liver: AST or ALT ≥ 1000
– CNS: impaired
consciousness
– Failure of heart and other
organs
Treatment
• Death from acute liver failure,
hemorrhage, renal failure, brain
edema and pulmonary edema
• No specific treatment available
• Supportive Measures (antipyretics,
Oxygen, colloids > crystalloids, blood
products)
• Monitor vitals, Monitor CBC and
Fluid balance (avoid over hydration)
• WHO Guidelines available for fluid
management
• Antivirals are being investigated
• CDC Indications for hospitalization
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Tachycardia
Increased cap refill
Cool Mottled or pale skin
Decreased peripheral pulses
Mental status changes
Oliguria
Sudden increase in hematocrit despite
fluids
• Narrowing of pulse pressure (<20
mmHg)
• Hypotension
Summary
• Aedes vector
• Second infection is worse
• Defervescence Period
• DF/ DHF/ DSS
• Follow WHO guidelines
• Interferes with many
immunologic –based tests
• ALL LOVE for 7 warning signs of
Dengue
• Abdominal pain
Lethargy
Liver enlargement
Low platelet & high hematocrit
O – nil
Vomiting persistently
Extravasation of fluid
