    Dengue is a mosquito-borne disease caused by any of the four dengue viruses. It is transmitted person-to-person by Aedes mosquitoes, most often Aedes aegypti. The clinical diagnosis of dengue relies on symptoms and laboratory tests. Management of dengue involves maintaining adequate hydration through oral or IV fluids, using acetaminophen for fever reduction but avoiding NSAIDs due to bleeding risk, and monitoring a patient's vital signs, hydration status, and lab results such as platelet count and hematocrit.

    Maintain adequate hydration
    •Drink plenty fluids

    Antipyretics
    •Acetaminophen / paracetamol
    •Avoid aspirin and other nonsteroidal, anti-inflammatory medications
     increase the risk of hemorrhage.
    Monitor
    •Hemodynamic status: heart rate, blood pressure, CRT, temperature
    •Hydration status: sign of dehydration & urine output)
    •Laboratory: platelet count, hematocrit
