Chikungunya Fever: An Epidemiological Review of a Re-Emerging Infectious Disease. Emerging Diseases. September 2009 Haridas et al. Neonatal Chingkungunya – a case seires Diagnostics • Viral culture – gold standard • The detection of viral nucleic acid or of infectious virus in serum samples is useful during the initial viremic phase, at the onset of symptoms and normally for the following 5-10 days • IFA and ELISA are rapid and sensitive techniques for detection of CHIKV-specific antibodies, and can distinguish between IgG and IgM. IgM are detectable 23 days after the onset of symptoms and persist for several weeks, up to 3 months to 1 year Treatment • No specific antiviral treatment is available for chikungunya fever. • Treatment is for symptoms and can include rest, fluids, and use of analgesics and antipyretics. • Infected people should be protected from further mosquito exposure (staying indoors in areas with screens or under a mosquito net) during the first few days of the illness, so they do not contribute to the transmission cycle • Chikungunya is a self limiting illness with recovery being the rule • Few deaths have been reported • The morbidity and mortality of the disease may be avoided by the rational use of drugs and close monitoring of all infants. Summary: • • • At our present setting, there has been an emergence of Chikungunya outbreaks confirmed by The Department of Health (DOH) in several communities in 10 towns across our country Chikungunya represents a substantial risk for neonates born to viremic parturients that should be taken into account by clinicians and public health authorities in the event of a chikungunya outbreak. Careful history taking and physical examination and high index of suspicion remains to be the key in making the diagnosis
