Hi
Thanks for your question.
After going through your question, I can understand your concern.
There is dengue fever in your wife's case.
Complications associated with dengue are-
1) Low
platelet count (
Thrombocytopenia) this is due to platelet destruction and bone marrow suppression (decreased synthesis).
2) Coagulopathy: bleeding tendency.
3) Hepatitis and acalculus cholecytitis (inflammation of liver and gall bladder)
4) Kidney failure.
5) Shock low blood pressure.
6)
Respiratory distress.
So there may be a need for following depending upon clinical evaluation -
- Daily platelet count.
-
Complete Blood Count.
- Liver function Test.
- Kidney function test.
- Chest xray.
- Ultrasound of abdomen and pelvis.
- Coagulation profile.
- Urine examination.
Keep watch on-
- Bleeding from any site urine, nose, while brushing, patechie and rashes.
- Breathing difficulties.
-
Abdominal pain, vomiting, jaundice.
- Dizziness, change in level of consciousness.
Depending upon her clinical evaluation and above test results there may be need for hospitalization.
Use paracetamol for fever and maintain adequate hydration.
Hope this helps, if so do vote as helpful.
