The results found that physicians from Bangladesh, India, and Malaysia have higher KAP scores in dengue diagnosis and treatment compared to physicians in Turkey, which may be due to a lack of physician’s exposure to a d Dengue patient as Turkey is considered a nonendemic country.
Dengue fever is a disease caused by a family of viruses transmitted by mosquitoes. Dengue virus (DENV), a member of the Flaviviridae family, causes the most widespread mosquito-borne viral infection in humans around the world today.
The primary preventative measure to reduce dengue infections is the control of mosquito populations. Because the transmission of dengue requires mosquitoes as vectors, the spread of dengue can be limited by reducing mosquito populations.
On the seventh day of dengue fever, fever and other symptoms like headache, joint pain, and rash may continue or start to improve. It's important to monitor your condition and seek medical help if needed.
No specific treatment for dengue fever exists. While recovering from dengue fever, drink plenty of fluids. Call your doctor right away if you have any of the following signs and symptoms of dehydration: Decreased urination.
Dengue viruses are spread to people through the bite of an infected mosquito. Dengue symptoms usually start within a few days of being bitten but can take up to 2 weeks to develop. Symptoms can be mild or severe and can include fever with nausea, vomiting, rash, headache, eye pain, joint and muscle pain.
Dengue (break-bone fever) is a viral infection that spreads from mosquitoes to people. It is more common in tropical and subtropical climates. Most people who get dengue will not have symptoms. But for those who do, the most common symptoms are high fever, headache, body aches, nausea, and rash.
Dengue fever is caused by a virus passed on by the bite of a daytime biting mosquito. Dengue fever occurs in tropical and subtropical areas of the world. The disease causes a severe flu-like illness. It is generally treated with bed rest and fluids.
How long does dengue fever last? Initial symptoms of dengue last three to seven days. Most people begin to feel better after this, but some have life-threatening severe dengue that requires treatment in a medical facility.
Supportive care with analgesics, fluid replacement, and bed rest usually is sufficient. Acetaminophen may be used to treat fever and relieve other symptoms. Aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and corticosteroids should be avoided.
