Summary
Dengue hemorrhagic fever is a mosquito-borne disease. This document covers its causes, symptoms, and nursing management.
Dengue Fever Causes
Dengue fever is caused by the bite of Aedes mosquitoes. The Aedes Aegypti mosquito is the main carrier. The Aedes Albopictus mosquito may also spread the virus.
Dengue Fever Symptoms
Dengue fever has three stages: incubation, communicability, and susceptibility. Symptoms vary from mild to severe, depending on the stage and grade of the fever.
Nursing Care Management
Nursing care involves preventive measures, supportive management, and health education. Preventive measures include the 4S drive: search, self-protection, seek consultation, and say no to indiscriminate fogging.

Health education focuses on preventing hemorrhage. This includes avoiding dark foods, using soft toothbrushes, and avoiding sharp objects. Aspirin use is strictly prohibited.
