Dengue Test

A Dengue Test is a crucial diagnostic procedure for identifying infection with the dengue virus, a prevalent mosquito-borne viral disease. Transmitted by infected Aedes mosquitoes, early and accurate diagnosis is vital, as some infections can progress to severe, life-threatening forms. The test is typically performed when a person exhibits dengue-like symptoms (high fever, severe headache, muscle pain) and has been in an endemic area. There are two main types of tests. The NS1 Antigen Test detects a viral protein and is most effective during the acute phase of infection, typically within the first 1-7 days of symptoms, indicating active viral replication. Antibody Tests (IgM and IgG) detect the body's immune response. IgM antibodies indicate a recent primary infection and become detectable around 3-5 days after symptom onset. IgG antibodies appear later (7-10 days) and persist for years, indicating past or secondary infection. A PCR test, detecting viral genetic material, is also highly sensitive in the early acute phase. The test involves a simple blood draw. Timely diagnosis is crucial for appropriate patient management, supportive care, and public health efforts to control dengue spread in affected regions, especially given the potential for severe complications.
