10 Dengue Fever Dengue Hemorrhagic fever Dengue Shock Syndrome WHO 1997
11 Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) A case must meet all 4 criteria 1. Fever lasting 2-7 days 2. Haemorrhagic tendency shown by positive tourniquet test or spontaneous bleeding 3. Thrombocytopenia (<100K/L) 4. Evidence of plasma leakage shown by either hemoconcentration or development of pleural effusions/ascites, or both DHF is further classified into 4 severity grades based on presence/absence of shock WHO 1997

13 Warning signs (7) Persistent vomiting Abd pain / tenderness Mucosal bleeding Clinical fluid accumulation Lethargy-restlessness Enlarged liver >2cm Rapid HCT - Plt WHO 2009
14 WHO 2009 RT-PCR, NS1 IgM IgG serology
15 Dengue management Febrile phase Primary Care Early recognition / suspicion of dengue POCT / rapid combined Ag/Abs Daily monitoring Early recognition of warning signs Secondary Care Hospitalization hospitalisation Adequate trained staff Critical phase Lab support Adequate consumables Tertiary Care ICU Specialized dengue care unit Final Outcome Recovery WHO 2009

20 Local evidence on utility of warning signs Presence of warning sign/s are common particularly mucosal bleeding Absence of warning sign/s rarely will progress to severe disease Watch closely patients with 2 or more warning signs Interval from onset of warning sign/s to severe disease can be short
21 Majority had WS 1 day prior to onset of severe illness
22 Age distribution of adult dengue deaths Singapore Fatalities >65 Age group (years) DHF age in 2 o Infection, 1981 Cuba Outbreak Guzman IJID 2002;6:118 Older adults with dengue have more atypical presentations, more organ involvement, more pre-existing comorbidities, higher mortality, require higher index of suspicion to diagnose, closer monitoring and careful management

52 How to remove a tick Never crush a tick with your fingers Avoid folklore remedies such as "painting" the tick with nail polish or petroleum jelly, or using heat to make the tick detach from the skin Use fine-tipped tweezers to grasp the tick as close to the skin's surface as possible. Pull upward with steady, even pressure. Don't twist or jerk the tick; this can cause the mouth-parts to break off and remain in the skin. If this happens, remove the mouth-parts with tweezers. If you are unable to remove the mouth easily with clean tweezers, leave it alone and let the skin heal. After removing the tick, thoroughly clean the bite area and your hands with rubbing alcohol, an iodine scrub, or soap and water.
53 Lyme Disease Caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi Transmitted to humans through the bite of infected blacklegged ticks. Early Signs and Symptoms (3 to 30 days after tick bite) Fever, chills, headache, fatigue, muscle and joint aches, and swollen lymph nodes Erythema migrans (EM) rash (70-80%): At the site of a tick bite after a delay of 3 to 30 days (average is about 7 days) Later Signs and Symptoms (days to months after tick bite) Severe headaches and neck stiffness Additional EM rashes on other areas of the body Arthritis with severe joint pain and swelling, particularly the knees and other large joints. Facial palsy (loss of muscle tone or droop on one or both sides of the face) Intermittent pain in tendons, muscles, joints, and bones Heart palpitations or an irregular heart beat (Lyme carditis) Episodes of dizziness or shortness of breath Inflammation of the brain and spinal cord Nerve pain Shooting pains, numbness, or tingling in the hands or feet Problems with short-term memory
54 Treatment Early stages oral doxycycline, amoxicillin, cefuroxime Neurological or cardiac forms Iv ceftriaxone or penicillin
55 Tularemia Disease of animals and humans Caused by the bacterium Francisella tularensis. Rabbits, hares, and rodents often die in large numbers during outbreaks. Humans can become infected through several routes: Tick and deer fly bites Skin contact with infected animals Ingestion of contaminated water Inhalation of contaminated aerosols or agricultural dusts Laboratory exposure
56 Signs and symptoms Several forms (depending on the route of entry), high fever presence in all Ulceroglandular most common form, at the site of tick bite, swollen lymph nodes Glandular Oculoglandular Oropharygeal Pneumonic (most severe form) Typhoidal Mild to life threatening Diagnosis Rare disease, hard to diagnose culture Treatment streptomycin, gentamicin, doxycycline, ciprofloxacin. Usually lasts 10 to 21 days depending on the stage of illness and the medication used. Although symptoms may last for several weeks, most patients completely recover.
