Epidermiology
An Emerging disease
DHF present in the WHO regions of the Americas, South-East
Asia, Eastern Mediterranean and Western Pacific; Africa reports
DEN but only sporadic DHF
Transmission
Breeding areas
Vertical Transmission
DENV can be transmitted from the mother to the fetus in
utero or to the neonate at parturition (vertical
transmission)
Rates of vertical transmission vary and may depend on
severity of maternal infection and timing of infection
Reported cases were symptomatic and had a symptomatic
mother with infection late in pregnancy or at delivery
Most congenital cases described had fever plus
thrombocytopenia and hepatomegaly.
Half had hemorrhagic manifestation
One quarter had pleural effusion and/or rash
Clinical presentation not associated with maternal immune
status or mode of delivery
Laboratory
1.Leukopenia
