Dengue fever is an acute, self-limited, febrile disease caused by dengue virus and transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. It occurs in two forms: dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever. Dengue fever involves fever, headache, rash and joint pain while dengue hemorrhagic fever involves high fever, bleeding, organ involvement and signs of circulatory failure. Diagnosis involves clinical presentation and serological tests to detect antibodies or viral components. Treatment focuses on fluid replacement and supportive care, with monitoring to prevent shock in dengue hemorrhagic fever cases. Prevention emphasizes mosquito control and personal protection measures.
This document provides information on Dengue fever, including:
- It is caused by Dengue viruses 1-4 and transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. Infection provides lifetime immunity to one serotype but not others.

Infection is common among those under 15 years old. Outbreaks typically occur during rainy seasons. The WHO provides classifications for dengue virus infections ranging from asymptomatic to dengue fever to dengue haemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. Grading of DHF includes levels from 1-4 with levels 3-4 considered Dengue Shock Syndrome.
Dengue fever, also known as breakbone fever, is caused by the dengue virus and transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. It is endemic in over 110 countries, infecting 50-100 million people annually. Symptoms include high fever, headache, muscle and joint pains, and a rash. In a small percentage of cases, it can develop into severe dengue hemorrhagic fever or dengue shock syndrome, which can be life-threatening. There is no vaccine, so prevention depends on controlling mosquito populations and avoiding bites. Nurses play an important role in monitoring patients, providing rehydration and blood transfusions if needed, and educating on prevention.
This document provides information on dengue, including its case definition, epidemiology, pathophysiology, clinical features, investigations, management, complications, and treatment. A probable dengue case is defined as an acute febrile illness with two or more symptoms like headache and retro-orbital pain. A confirmed case requires virus isolation or serology testing. Dengue is endemic in over 100 countries and is transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito. It has four serotypes and causes a spectrum of disease from mild fever to severe dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. Management involves fluid management and supportive care. There is currently no approved vaccine for dengue.
Scrub typhus, also known as bush typhus, is a disease caused by a bacteria called ORIENTIA TSUTSUGAMUSHI.
Scrub typhus is spread to people through bites of infected chiggers (larval mites).
Most cases of scrub typhus occur in rural areas of Southeast Asia, Indonesia, China, Japan, India, and northern Australia. Anyone living in or travelling to areas where scrub typhus is found could get infected
Scrub typhus is not transmitted directly from person to person; it is only transmitted by the bites of vectors
Chiggers are abundant in locales with high relative humidity (60%–85%), low temperature (20°C–30°C), low incidence of sunlight, and a dense substrate-vegetative canopy.
Occupational risk is higher in farmers (aged 50–69 years), females.

It provides detailed recommendations for treatment and monitoring of each group.
1. The document provides guidelines for diagnosing and treating dengue fever, which is caused by the dengue virus and transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes.
2. It outlines the typical phases of dengue illness - febrile, critical, and recovery phase - and describes the clinical manifestations at each stage.
3. Patients are classified into groups - A, B, or C - depending on severity of symptoms and need for home care versus hospital admission and management. Close monitoring is important to watch for warning signs and progression to more severe disease.
Dengue is a febrile illness caused by a flavivirus transmitted by Aedes aegypti or Aedes albopictus mosquitoes while taking a blood meal. There are four dengue virus (DENV) types (DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4), all of which are capable of inducing severe disease (dengue hemorrhagic fever [DHF]/dengue shock syndrome [DSS]). Dengue is endemic in more than 125 countries in tropical and subtropical regions and causes an estimated 390 million infections annually worldwide, of which 96 million are clinically apparent
In dengue-endemic regions, suspected, probable, and confirmed cases of dengue infection should be reported to the relevant authorities as soon as possible, so that appropriate measures can be instituted to prevent dengue transmission
1) Dengue fever is caused by dengue virus transmitted by mosquitoes and has four distinct serotypes. It has an incubation period of 4-7 days and may present asymptomatically or with mild to severe symptoms.
2) The clinical course involves a febrile phase with symptoms like fever and rash, followed by a critical phase where vascular permeability increases, and a recovery phase. Shock may occur if plasma leakage is not corrected.
3) Hospital admission is recommended for patients exhibiting warning signs like abdominal pain, vomiting, bleeding, lethargy or clinical signs of shock, organ impairment, inability to tolerate fluids, or those with risk factors.

Management involves assessing severity, monitoring vital signs and blood work, and providing fluid support. Platelet transfusions may be indicated for severe bleeding or low platelet counts. Proper fluid management is important to avoid complications in the critical and recovery phases of illness.
Dengue virus rarely causes death. However, the infection can progress into a more serious condition known as severe dengue or dengue hemorrhagic fever. Symptoms of dengue hemorrhagic fever include: bleeding under the skin. frequent vomiting.
This document discusses dengue fever and its management. It begins with an introduction to dengue virus and epidemiology. It then discusses the pathophysiology and clinical manifestations of dengue infection, including the different classifications of dengue syndrome. Laboratory investigations for diagnosis and their interpretation are explained. Management of dengue cases is also summarized.
Dengue fever is caused by the dengue virus transmitted by mosquitoes. It causes flu-like symptoms including fever, headache, muscle and joint pains. There are four types of dengue virus. Infection provides lifetime immunity to one type but only temporary protection against others. The disease progresses through febrile, critical, and recovery phases. In the critical phase, plasma leakage can cause dengue hemorrhagic fever or dengue shock syndrome, medical emergencies characterized by bleeding and circulatory failure. Diagnosis involves antigen and antibody testing. Treatment is supportive with rest and fluid replacement. Prevention focuses on controlling mosquito breeding habitats.
- Dengue virus is transmitted via mosquito bites and causes a febrile illness with three phases: acute, critical, and recovery. Common symptoms include headache, rash, and bleeding.
- Diagnosis is based on symptoms and serology detecting IgM and IgG antibodies or virus. Dengue hemorrhagic fever is diagnosed when hemorrhagic manifestations and plasma leakage are present along with thrombocytopenia.
- Treatment involves fluid resuscitation and management of shock in severe cases. Patients are monitored for warning signs that indicate potential progression to severe dengue or dengue shock syndrome.
Dengue, DHF, DSS, PREVENTION, MANAGEMENT, TREATMENTDr-Hem Shah
Dengue is a viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes. It causes flu-like symptoms including fever, headache, muscle and joint pains, and rash. In some cases it can develop into severe dengue hemorrhagic fever or dengue shock syndrome, resulting in bleeding, low blood pressure and organ failure. Diagnosis is usually clinical based on symptoms and signs. Treatment focuses on fluid replacement and symptom relief. Prevention involves controlling mosquito breeding sites and using protective measures against mosquito bites. Homeopathy offers several remedies that can help manage symptoms and aid recovery from dengue fever.

It describes several epilepsy syndromes that involve myoclonic seizures, including West syndrome, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, Doose syndrome, and Dravet syndrome. Treatment depends on the specific syndrome but may include valproic acid, clonazepam, vigabatrin, ACTH, a ketogenic diet, and avoiding medications like lamotrigine that can exacerbate seizures.
Upper GI bleeding & portal hypertension in ChildrenSingaram_Paed
This document discusses signs and symptoms of gastrointestinal bleeding, including melena, haematemesis, and haematochezia. It covers evaluation, treatment, and management of variceal bleeding including pharmacologic therapies, endoscopic procedures like band ligation and sclerotherapy, and surgical options like shunts and transplantation.
Iron deficiency anemia is highly prevalent globally, affecting over 2 billion people worldwide. It is caused by inadequate iron intake or absorption relative to the body's needs. Symptoms include pallor, fatigue, and behavioral changes in children. Treatment involves oral iron supplementation, though some severe cases require intravenous iron. Prevention strategies center around dietary modification and supplementation programs.
Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) in newborns ranges from 2-30% depending on gestational age and type of hemorrhage. Diagnosis is based on clinical suspicion and confirmed via CT or MRI. The presence and severity of brain injury best predicts outcomes. ICH results from ruptured veins and occurs more often in preterm infants, while trauma often causes ICH in full-term infants. Management depends on the type and severity of hemorrhage, but often involves stabilization, treatment of seizures, and monitoring for complications. Prognosis relates to other factors in addition to the hemorrhage.
PYREXIA OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN (PUO) refers to unexplained fever that persists for at least 3 weeks. Common causes include infectious diseases (40-60% of cases), autoimmune diseases (10-20% of cases), and malignancies. Evaluation involves detailed history, physical exam, and tiered testing including basic labs, imaging, and potentially bone marrow biopsy depending on findings. The most frequent cause varies by age, with infections more common in children under 6 and autoimmune diseases increasing thereafter. Careful examination and consideration of exposures can help identify infectious etiologies while abnormal findings may suggest alternative diagnoses.
Approach to a child with failure to thriveSingaram_Paed
This document discusses failure to thrive (FTT) in children. It defines FTT as inadequate physical growth compared to peers. FTT can be caused by inadequate calorie intake, absorption, increased needs, or utilization. It affects 5-10% of young children. Causes include psychosocial factors, infections, gastrointestinal issues, and neurological problems. Evaluation of a child with FTT involves medical history, physical exam, lab tests, and assessing nutrition. Treatment focuses on improving the child's diet and development stimulation, caregiver skills, and treating any underlying medical issues. Regular follow up is also important.
Rickettsiae are obligate intracellular bacteria that can cause diseases like Rocky Mountain spotted fever and typhus. They are transmitted through arthropod bites like ticks, mites and fleas. Common symptoms include fever, headache and rash. Diagnosis involves serologic tests detecting IgM and IgG antibodies. Doxycycline is the treatment of choice. Clinical features along with exposure history and serology can help diagnose rickettsial infections.
A congenital heart defect is a problem with the structure of the heart that a child is born with.
Some congenital heart defects in children are simple and don't need treatment. Others are more complex. The child may need several surgeries done over a period of several years.

Congestive Heart failure is caused by low cardiac output and high sympathetic discharge. Diuretics reduce preload, ACE inhibitors lower afterload, beta blockers reduce sympathetic activity, and digitalis has inotropic effects. Newer medications target vasodilation and myosin activation to improve heart efficiency while lowering energy requirements. Combination therapy, following an assessment of cardiac function and volume status, is the most effective strategy to heart failure care.
Fexofenadine is sold under the brand name Allegra.
It is a selective peripheral H1 blocker. It is classified as a second-generation antihistamine because it is less able to pass the blood–brain barrier and causes lesser sedation, as compared to first-generation antihistamines.
It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines. Fexofenadine has been manufactured in generic form since 2011.
Allopurinol, a uric acid synthesis inhibitor acts by inhibiting Xanthine oxidase competitively as well as non- competitively, Whereas Oxypurinol is a non-competitive inhibitor of xanthine oxidase.
Breast cancer :Receptor (ER/PR/HER2 NEU) Discordance.pptxDr. Sumit KUMAR
Receptor Discordance in Breast Carcinoma During the Course of Life
Definition:
Receptor discordance refers to changes in the status of hormone receptors (estrogen receptor ERα, progesterone receptor PgR, and HER2) in breast cancer tumors over time or between primary and metastatic sites.
Causes:
Tumor Evolution:
Genetic and epigenetic changes during tumor progression can lead to alterations in receptor status.
Treatment Effects:
Therapies, especially endocrine and targeted therapies, can selectively pressure tumor cells, causing shifts in receptor expression.
Heterogeneity:
Inherent heterogeneity within the tumor can result in subpopulations of cells with different receptor statuses.
Impact on Treatment:
Therapeutic Resistance:
Loss of ERα or PgR can lead to resistance to endocrine therapies.
HER2 discordance affects the efficacy of HER2-targeted treatments.
Treatment Adjustment:
Regular reassessment of receptor status may be necessary to adjust treatment strategies appropriately.
Clinical Implications:
Prognosis:
Receptor discordance is often associated with a poorer prognosis.
Biopsies:
Obtaining biopsies from metastatic sites is crucial for accurate receptor status assessment and effective treatment planning.
Monitoring:
Continuous monitoring of receptor status throughout the disease course can guide personalized therapy adjustments.
Understanding and managing receptor discordance is essential for optimizing treatment outcomes and improving the prognosis for breast cancer patients.

● The most rapidly spreading mosquito-borne viral
disease in the world
● Dengue virus :
4 serotypes : DEN1, DEN2,DEN3, and DEN4
Family Flaviviridae
Genus Flavivirus
Single stranded RNA virus
● “Asian” genotypes of DEN-2 and DEN-3 :
frequently associated with severe disease
accompanying secondary dengue infections
3.
4. Average annual number of DF and DHF cases reported to WHO, and of countries reporting dengue,
1955–2007
5. Dengue Virus Infection
● Immunity : long lasting in same serotype, partial and
transient to other serotypes
● Primary infection, secondary infection
● Greater risk of serious symptoms in secondary
infection
• Plasma leakage distinguishes dengue fever from
dengue hemorrhagic fever
• Plasma leakage,hemoconcentration and abnormalities
in homeostasis characterize severe dengue
6. Dengue Virus Infection:
Clinical Syndromes
● Undifferentiated fever
● Dengue fever: fever, headache, muscle pain,
nausea/vomiting, rash
● DHF
● DSS
Gr I, II
Plasma leakage
Gr III, IV
7. Definition of Dengue Hemorrhagic
Fever
4 necessary criteria:
• Fever, or recent history of acute fever
• Hemorrhagic manifestations
● Low platelet count (100,000/mm3 or less)
● Objective evidence of “leaky capillaries”
elevated hematocrit (20% or more over baseline)
pleural or other effusions
Fall in hematocrit >20% after I.V Fluids
8. Definition of Dengue Shock Syndrone
4 criteria for DHF
● Evidence of circulatory failure manifested indirectly
by all of the following:
Rapid and weak pulse
Narrow pulse pressure (< 20 mm Hg) OR hypotension
for age
Cold, clammy skin and altered mental status
● Frank shock is direct evidence of circulatory failure
9. WHO classification
● Undifferentiated fever
● Dengue fever (DF)
● Dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF)
4 severity grades
grades III and IV : dengue shock syndrome (DSS)
● Currently the classification into DF/DHF/DSS
continues to be widely used
11. ● patients with non-severe dengue
patients with warning signs
patients without warning signs
● “dengue is one disease entity with different clinical
presentations and often with unpredictable clinical
evolution and outcome”
14. Dengue
● incubation period of 4-10 days
● wide spectrum of illness (most, asymptomatic or
subclinical)
● Primary infection : induce lifelong protective
immunity to the infecting serotype
● Individuals suffering an infection are protected
from clinical illness with a different serotype
within 2-3 months of the primary infection
● no long-term cross-protective immunity
15. Risk factors (determine the severity of disease
and secondary infection)
● Age
● Ethnicity
● Possibly chronic diseases (bronchial asthma, sickle
cell anemia and DM)
● Young children (less able to compensate for capillary
leakage and are consequently at greater risk of
dengue shock)
● Secondary heterotypic infection as risk factor for
severe dengue
17. Febrile phase
● High-grade fever, 2–7 days
● facial flushing, skin erythema, body ache, myalgia, arthralgia,
headache and N/V
● Indistinguishable between severe and non-severe dengue cases
● Monitoring for warning signs
● Mild hemorrhagic manifestations : petechiae and mucosal
membrane bleeding (e.g. nose and gums)
● Liver often enlarged and tender after a few days of fever
● The earliest abnormality in CBC : progressive decrease in
WBC
18. The course of dengue illness
Dengue: Guidelines for diagnosis, treatment, prevention and control. WHO 2009
19. Critical phase
● Day 3–7 of illness
● Progressive leukopenia rapid ↓platelet count plasma
leakage
● Patients without ↑capillary permeability will improve
● Patients with ↑capillary permeability : worse, lose plasma
volume
● The degree of increase above the baseline HCT reflects
severity of plasma leakage
• Shock-WBC may increase in patients with severe bleeding
20. The course of dengue illness
Dengue: Guidelines for diagnosis, treatment, prevention and control. WHO 2009
21. Recovery phase
● Gradual reabsorption of extravascular compartment fluid
takes place in the following 48–72 hours
● Well-being improves, appetite returns, GI symptoms abate,
hemodynamic status stabilizes and diuresis ensues
● Rash : “isles of white in the sea of red” Some may
experience generalized pruritus
● Hct stabilizes or lower due to the dilutional effect of
reabsorbed fluid
● WBC usually rise soon after defervescence but the recovery
of platelet count is typically later than that of WBC
22. Febrile, critical and recovery phases in
dengue
Febrile phase Dehydration; high fever may cause
neurological disturbances and febrile
seizures in young children
Critical phase Shock from plasma leakage; severe
hemorrhage; organ impairment
Recovery phase Hypervolemia (only if iv fluid therapy
has been excessive and/or
has extended into this period)
23. Severe dengue
● Fever of 2–7 days plus any of the following
Evidence of plasma leakage :
high or progressively rising Hct
pleural effusions or ascites
circulatory compromise or shock (tachycardia, cold and clammy
extremities, capillary refill time > 3 seconds, weak or undetectable
pulse, narrow PP or, in late shock, unrecordable BP)
Significant bleeding
Altered level of consciousness (lethargy or restlessness, coma,
convulsions)
Severe GI involvement (persistent vomiting, increasing or intense
abdominal pain, jaundice)
Severe organ impairment (acute liver failure, ARF, encephalopathy or
encephalitis, or other unusual manifestations, cardiomyopathy)
27. Primary Infection
● NS1 antigen : Day 1 after onset of fever and up to day 9
● IgM antibody :
Day 5 of infection, sometimes as early as Day 3
IgM levels : peak in 2 weeks, followed by a 2 week rapid
decay
Undetectable 2 to 3 months after infection
● Low levels of IgG are detected in the early convalescent
phase, not during the acute phase
28. Secondary Infection
● NS1 antigen : day 1 after onset of fever and up to day 9
● IgM response is more varied
● Usually preceded by IgG and appears quite late during the
febrile phase
● Minority of patients will show no detectable levels of IgM
● May not be produced until 20 days after onset of infection
● High levels of IgG are detectable during the acute phase
● Persist for 30-40 days then decline to levels found in primary
or past infection
29. Atypical neurological manifestations
of dengue
● Neurologic abnormalities : uncommon during dengue
fever
● DHF, encephalopathy is well recognized, from
several factors
cerebral anoxia
cerebral edema
cerebral hemorrhage

toxicity secondary to liver failure
● Studies in southeast Asia, encephalopathy associated
with classic DF can occur in up to half of the cases
30. Atypical gastrointestinal
manifestations of dengue
• Hepatitis
Hepatomegaly, jaundice and raised aminotransferase levels
(AST>ALT)
caused by the dengue virus and ⁄or Hypoxia and tissue ischemia
in cases of shock

severe, myositis for weeks
34. Lymphoreticular complications of
dengue
● Dengue virus antigen is found predominantly in cells
of the spleen, thymus and lymph nodes
● DHF, lymphadenopathy is observed in half of the
cases
● Splenomegaly is rarely observed
● Splenic rupture and lymph node infarction in DHF
