infections of dengue viruses in belgaum, karnataka and india, dengue in belgaum
DESCRIPTION
Dengue is a mosquito-borne infection which in recent years has become a major international public health concern. Dengue is found in tropical and sub-tropical regions around the world, predominately in urban and peri-urban areas. Dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF), a potentially lethal complication, was first recognized during the 1950s and is today a leading cause of childhood mortality in several Asian countries. There are four distinct, but closely related, viruses which cause dengue. Recovery from infection by one provides lifelong immunity against that serotype but confers only partial and transient protection against subsequent infection by the other three. Indeed, there is good evidence that sequential infection increases the risk of more serious disease resulting in DHF.TRANSCRIPT

History The exact origins of the disease are not clearIt is said that it originated in Africa and was
spread worldwide with the slave trade. The name dengue is derived from the Swahili "Ka-
Dinga pepo" that describes the disease as a sudden cramp like disease caused by an evil spirit.
In the wild- The virus has a life cycle very similar to that of yellow fever involving passing between primates living in the jungle canopy and mosquitoes that feed on them.
It is believed that the virus was transferred to man by the bite of the tiger-striped mosquito (Aedes albopticus) as man began clearing the jungle and building settlements.
The commonest vector is now the closely-related mosquito Aedes aegypti which is African in origin but has spread throughout the tropics in the Old and New Worlds.
Contnd..The earliest reports of a dengue-like disease are from
Chin Dynasty China (265-420 AD).
The illness was called “water poison” and known to be associated with flying insects near water
The first recognized Dengue epidemics occurred almost simultaneously in Asia, Africa, and North America in the 1780s (when the disease was first described), shortly after the identification and naming of the disease in 1779.
Epidemics occurred in • Cairo and Alexandria (Egypt, 1799);
• Jakarta (then called Batavia, Indonesia, 1799);
• Philadelphia (United States, 1780);
• Madras (India, 1780).
• Outbreaks have occurred throughout the temperate and tropical climes since then.
Population movements during World War II spread the disease globally.
A pandemic of dengue began in Southeast Asia after World War II and has spread around the globe since then (1950)
The DHF was first recognized in Philippines in 1953
Chronology
1950s A pandemic began in Southeast Asia
by 1975 DHF had become a leading cause of death among children in the SEAR.
By 1980s Dengue epidemics- became more common
By the late 1990s dengue became the most important mosquito-borne disease affecting humans after malaria
Virology
An Arbovirus
Single stranded positive sense enveloped RNA viruses
50-60 nm Four serotypes are there (DEN-1, 2, 3, 4)
Family Flaviviridae
Genus Flavivirus
Serotypes Den1,2,3 &4
Dengue Virus
The virus was isolated by Sabin in 1944
By 1956, all the four serotypes of the virus were identified
Each serotype provides specific lifetime immunity, and short-term cross-immunity
All serotypes can cause severe and fatal disease
Second, third and possibly four infections are possible.
Reservoir- Both Man and Mosquito. The transmission cycle is “Man-Mosquito-Man”
Incubation period- Intrinsic IP- 3-14 days average 5-8 days
Extrinsic IP- 8-12 days
Period of communicability- Few hours to one day prior to the onset of symptoms to 5 days
Immunity Infection with one serotype confers lifelong immunity
to that serotype and only temporary and transient protection to other three
Sequential infection increases the risk of DHF/DSS Significant outbreaks of dengue fever tend to occur
every five or six months. The cyclical rise and fall in numbers of dengue cases is
thought to be the result of seasonal cycles interacting with a short-lived cross-immunity for all four strains in people who have had dengue
Immunity-Contnd…
When the cross-immunity wears off the population is more susceptible to transmission whenever the next seasonal peak occurs.
Thus over time there remain large numbers of susceptible people in affected populations despite previous outbreaks due to the four different serotypes of dengue virus and the presence of unexposed individuals from childbirth or immigration.
Mode of transmission
Dengue is transmitted by bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes, particularly A. aegypti and A.albopictus.
Dengue may also be transmitted via infected blood products (blood transfusions, plasma, and platelets), but the scale of this problem is unknown.
Transovarian transmission of viruses-
1. Mosquitoes transmitdengue to human dendriticcells
2. Dengue targets areaswith high WBC counts(liver, spleen, lymph nodes, bone marrow, andglands)
3. Dengue enters
WBCs & lymphatic
tissue
4. Dengue enters bloodcirculation

HOW DENGUE SPREADS
Then, within the mosquito, the virus replicates during an extrinsic incubation period of 8-12 days.
After which it becomes infective to man during its whole life time
Pathogenesis of DHF- decides the course of disease Not clearly understood
Many theories have been put forward
A new hypothesis of immunopathogenesis (ADE) is proposed for the development of the DHF/DSS.
According to it , in order to clear the virus in the
body, there occurs
An aberrant over activation of immune system
Overproduction of cytokines (that affect monocytes, endothelial cells, and hepatocytes)
The abnormal production of autoantibodies to platelet and endothelial cells.
A molecular mimicry occurs between platelets/endothelial cells and dengue virus antigens
viral entry , viral replication , rate of cell infection - increased
Manifestation Of Dengue Virus Infections
Infection with any serotype can be asymptomatic or lead to one of the four clinical scenarios of increasing severity: undifferentiated fever, dengue fever, DHF, and DSS Synonym/Breakbone fever
SynonymsDandy fever Duengero fever Saddle back fever Seven day fever

Central Peripheral
Bone marrow suppression
Utilization-Excessive used for platelet aggravation-Consumptive coagulopathy
Platelet destruction
MECHANISM OF THROMBOCYTOPENIA
A) ASYMPTOMATICA) ASYMPTOMATIC
DSS (Grade III & IV)
B) SYMPTOMATICB) SYMPTOMATIC
Without haemorrhage
With unusual haemorrhage
No shock (Grade I & II)
Undifferentiated Fever
Dengue Fever
DengueHaemorrhagicFever
Asymptomatic (Subclinical infections)
About 30% of the total infections
They sensitize the immune system
1) Undifferentiated Fever Definition- a group of illnesses
resulting from infection by any of the arboviruses pathogenic to humans, in which the only constant manifestation is fever
May be the most common manifestation of dengue
It was found in a prospective study that 87% of students infected were either asymptomatic or only mildly symptomatic
Other prospective studies including all age- groups also demonstrate silent transmissionDS Burke, et al. A prospective study of dengue infectionsin Bangkok. Am J Trop Med Hyg 1988; 38:172-80.
2) Dengue Fever without haemorrhage ( Classical dengue fever)
is an acute febrile illness of 2-7 days duration (Fever is in most of the cases is followed by a remission of 2hours- 2days-biphasic curve - with two peaks) with two or more of the following manifestations:
1.Headache2.Muscle and joint pain (severe-break-bone fever)-
>78%3.Nausea/vomiting
4. Retro orbital pain
5. Rash (Day 2-5)-Rashes appear in remission period or in second febrile period which lasts for 1-2 days. The rash is accompanied by similar but milder symptoms
(Rash- During the first half of the febrile period- diffuse flushing, mottling or fleeting pin-point eruptions on the face, neck and chest
It becomes maculopapular or scarletiniform on 3rd -4th day- It starts on the chest and trunk and spreads to extremities and rarely spreads to face. It may be accompanied by itching and hyperaesthesia. The rash lasts for 2 hours to several days and may be followed by desquamation.)
4. Hemorrhagic manifestations (petichiae and positive tourniquet test) and, leucopenia.
Tourniquet TestInflate blood pressure cuff to a point
midway between systolic and diastolic pressure for 5 minutes
Positive test: 20 or more petechiae per 1 inch2 (6.25 cm2)

Hepatomegaly
Low blood pressure
All the primary infections result in this type of dengue fever
In children, DF is usually mild
“Dengue triad”: fever, rash, and headache (Carson-DeWitt 2004).
Other common symptoms include- Extreme weaknessAnorexiaConstipationAltered taste sensationColicky pain and abdominal tendernessDragging pain in inguinal regionSore throatGeneral depression
What is the end result?
Complete recovery is the rule Severe weakness many persist for many
days after the fever leaves us Death occurs very rarely
4) Dengue Fever with unusual haemorrhage Occasionally variable degrees of thrombocytopenia
and cutaneous hemorrhage are observed.
Infrequently, DF may be accompanied by unusual bleeding complications that may cause death .
Unusual Presentations of Dengue Fever1)Encephalopathy :(Den2 and den3 are neurovirulent,
2-3% of total cases)- Decreased level of consciousness-lethargy, confusion and coma
Seizures Nuchal rigidity Paresis 2)Hepatic damage3) Cardiomyopathy4)Severe gastrointestinal hemorrhage
Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever-
A severe form of the disease Occurs in persons already sensitized ( secondary)
The first infection sensitizes the patient, while second produces an immunological catastrophe
Begins abruptly with high fever accompanied by facial flushing and headache
Anorexia, vomiting, epigastric discomfort, tenderness at the right costal margin and generalised abdominal pain are common
During the first few days the illness usually resembles classical DF, but after a few days the patient becomes irritable, restless, and sweaty. These symptoms are followed by a shock -like state
Rash may appear early or late in the course of illness
Febrile convulsions may occur in infantsThere may be bleeding under the skin (purpura), from the gums and from the gastrointestinal tract.
Hemorrhagic Manifestationsof DHF Skin hemorrhages: petechiae, purpura,
ecchymoses Gingival bleeding Nasal bleeding Gastro-intestinal bleeding: haematemesis,
melena, haematochezia Hematuria Increased menstrual flow
1. Fever, or recent history of acute fever
2. Hemorrhagic manifestations
3. Low platelet count (100,000/mm3 or less)
4. Objective evidence of “leaky capillaries:”elevated hematocrit (20% or more over baseline)low albuminpleural or other effusions
4 Necessary Criteria:
Four Grades of DHF Grade 1
Fever and nonspecific constitutional symptomsPositive tourniquet test is only hemorrhagic manifestation
Grade 2Grade 1 manifestations + spontaneous bleeding
Grade 3Signs of circulatory failure (rapid/weak pulse, narrow pulse pressure, hypotension, cold/clammy skin)
Grade 4Profound shock (undetectable pulse and BP)

DENGUE PATHOGENESIS
Ag-Ab-complement complex
Danger Signs in DHF that predict progression to DSS
Abdominal pain - intense and sustainedPersistent vomitingAbrupt change from fever to hypothermia, with sweating and prostrationRestlessness or somnolence
This thermometer illustrates the developments in the illness that are progressive warning signs that DSS may occur.The initial evaluation is made by determining how many days have passed since the onset of symptoms. Most patients who develop DSS do so 3-6 days after onset of symptoms. Therefore, if a patient is seven days into the illness, it is likely that the worst is over. If the fever goes between three and six days after the symptoms began, this is a warning signal that the patient must be closely observed, as shock often occurs at or around the disappearance of fever.
Other early warning signs to be alert for include a drop in platelets, an increase in hematocrit, or other signs of plasma leakage. If you document hemoconcentration and thrombocytopenia and other signs of DHF and the patient meets the criteria for DHF, the prognosis and the patient's risk category have changed. Though dengue fever does not often cause fatalities, a greater proportion of DHF cases are fatal. The next concern would be observation of the danger signs—severe abdominal pain, change in mental status, vomiting and abrupt change from fever to hypothermia. These often herald the onset of DSS. The goal of treatment is to prevent shock. The plasma leakage syndrome is self-limited. If you can support the patient through the plasma leakage phase and provide sufficient fluids to prevent shock, the illness will resolve itself.
Criteria for clinical diagnosis of Dengue Shock Syndrome
1. 4 criteria for DHF
2. Evidence of circulatory failure manifested indirectly by all of the following:
Rapid and weak pulseNarrow pulse pressure ( 20 mm Hg) OR hypotension for ageCold, clammy skin and altered mental status
It is sometimes not easy to categorize the disease, mixed presentations can also be seen
Adequate treatment and prompt referral saves the patient's life
Early signs of shock include restlessness, cold clammy skin, rapid weak pulse, narrowing of pulse pressure, and hypotension.DHF patients may rapidly progress into dengue shock syndrome (DSS), which, if not treated correctly, can lead to profound shock and death.Most patients who develop DSS do so 3-6days after onset of symptoms.If a patient is 7 days into the illness, it is likely
that the worst is over
Risk Factors Reported for DHF Virus strain- strain 2 is more virulent followed by 3,1
and 4
Pre-existing anti-dengue antibody
previous infection
maternal antibodies in infants ( dengue infection in pregnant mother may result in passive transfer of anti-dengue IgG to the foetus (or congenital infection)
Risk Factors for DHF (continued) Higher risk in secondary infections ( Hyperendemic regions) Higher risk in locations with two or more
serotypes circulating simultaneously at high levels (hyper endemic regions)
Host genetics—for example, race seems to be a factor: data from Cuba suggest that whites may be at greater risk, and blacks at lower risk. And Age—in Southeast Asia, children are most affected, though in the Americas, all age- groups are affected.
Dengue Infection in Pregnancy
Limited information Vertical transmission Dengue infection may be associated with:
Spontaneous abortion and fetal death Premature births

Infection and Pregnancy
10-25% of fetal loss caused by maternal or fetal infection
Due to: High maternal fever Reduced blood flow from infected placenta Fetal infection and damage of vital organs

Primary Infection
IgM antibodies appear approximately 5 days after onset of symptoms and rise for the next 1-3 weeks
IgM antibodies detectable for up to 6 months
IgG are detectable at approximately 14 days after onset of symptoms and are maintained for life
Secondary InfectionApproximately 5% patients do not produce detectable levels of specific IgM
IgM titre can be slower to rise in secondary infection
IgG appears approximately 2 days after symptoms appear
IgG titre significantly higher in secondary infection
ManagementNo specific treatment for dengue fever.
With appropriate intensive supportive therapy, mortality may be reduced to less than 1%.
Maintenance of the circulating fluid volume is the mainstay of managing patients with DHF
Outpatient triage
No hemorrhagic manifestations and the patient is well hydrated- Home treatmentHemorrhagic manifestations or hydration is borderline (Grade I & Grade II) –Outpatient observation or hospitalizationWith warning signs (even without profound shock) Grade III & Grade IV- Hospitalize
Management of dengue fever is symptomatic and supportiveBed rest – during the acute febrile phaseA rise in hematocrit value- significant plasma loss-indicates the parenteral therapy- hospitalizationVolume replacement therapy
Lost plasma should be replaced early with an electrolyte solution, plasma, or plasma expanders to prevent or treat reduced blood volume (hypovolemic) shock. Patients with mild dengue hemorrhagic fever can usually be rehydrated orally.
Fluids Rest Antipyretics (avoid aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) Monitor blood pressure, hematocrit, platelet count, level of consciousness
Signs of recoveryAbsence of fever for 24 hours (without anti-fever therapy) and return of appetiteVisible improvement in clinical pictureStable hematocrit3 days after recovery from shockPlatelets 50,000/mmNo respiratory distress from pleural effusions/ascites

Fluid Overload The common causes:
Early IV fluid therapy in the early febrile phase Use of hypotonic solution Do not reduce the rate of IV fluid and do not
discontinue IV fluid when entering convalescence period
Do not use colloidal solution when indicates Do not give blood transfusion when there is concealed
bleeding and continue giving crystaloid and colloidal solutions
Do not calculate the amount of IV fluid according to ideal body weight in obese/overweight patients
115
Note for Overweight Patients
Use ideal body weight (weight for age) to calculate the IV fluid in overweight/obese patients
Maximum weight for IV calculation is 50 kg (for adult and overweight patients)
Weight (kg) = 2 (Age + 4)
(Child aged between 1-10 years)
116
Management of Patient with Fluid Overload
Change IV fluid to Dextran 40 Insert urinary catheter with special precaution Furosemide 1mg/kg/dose IV. Vital signs should be
monitored every 15 min for at least 1 hour after furosemide and observe clinical signs of shock
Shock: Colloidal solution: Dextran 40 10ml/kg/h IV over 10-15 minutes or until the patient has stable vital signs, usually not more than 30 min and then switch to crystalloid solution.
VaccinesNo licensed vaccine at present
Effective vaccine must be tetravalent, otherwise protection against only one or two dengue viruses
could increase the risk of more serious disease.
Field testing of an attenuated tetravalent vaccine currently underway
Effective, safe and affordable vaccine will not be available in the immediate future
