In obese patients, the ideal body weight should be used as a guide to calculate the
fluid volume
Rate of intravenous fluids should be adjusted to the clinical situation. The rate of
IV fluid differs in adults and children.
Dengue viraemia in a patient is short, typically occurs 2–3 days prior to the onset of
fever and lasts for four to seven days of illness. During this period the dengue virus,
its nucleic acid and circulating viral antigen can be detected. Antibody response to
infection comprises the appearance of different types of immunoglobulins; and IgM
and IgG immunoglobulin isotypes are of diagnostic value in dengue. IgM antibodies
are detectable by days 3–5 after the onset of illness, rise quickly by about two weeks
and decline to undetectable levels after 2–3 months. IgG antibodies are detectable at
low level by the end of the first week, increase subsequently and remain for a longer
period (for many years). Because of the late appearance of IgM antibody, i.e. after
five days of onset of fever, serological tests based on this antibody done during the
first five days of clinical illness are usually negative
4. What’s our concern, if we found patient with suspect dengue haemorrhagic fever?
If we found patient with dengue haemorrhagic fever, we must focus on signs of
plasma leakage and warning sign, so we must observe the warning sign in our patient.
