Abstract:
To investigate the clinical features of one case of imported dengue fever, and to clarify the key points of its diagnosis and prevention. One case of dengue fever confirmed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University on September 1, 2023 was selected, and the clinical manifestations and epidemiological data were retrospectively analyzed, along with testing for the dengue virus nucleic acid in the patient. The patient had a history of travel and residence in the Maldives, and developed symptoms such as fever, chills, accompanied by muscle aches, and scattered rashes on both lower limbsfollowing exposure to cold, with a positive dengue virus nucleic acid test. After symptomatic treatment with nutritional support, antipyretic, rehydration, hemostasis, and elevated granulocytes, the patient was discharged from the hospital with improvement. The clinical manifestations of dengue fever are complex and diverse, and the collection of medical history should consider the patient's travel history abroad. Currently, there is no specific anti-dengue virus drug, and symptomatic and supportive treatment is mainly adopted.
