Located in the same room with an eldest daughter with dengue fever, Ms. Mai Lan (36 years old, Ho Chi Minh City) said that nearly 10 days, the family has always been in a tension state like a string.Mother is tired from dengue fever, still having to take care of the infusion day and night.However, she stopped worrying about a 2 -year -old boy at home, afraid that the mosquito flock to wander around the neighborhood could burn the sick baby.
"Last year, because of the subjective parents, the youngest was dengue in the first match.Lying here, the youngest child does not know how much he takes care of him.. Dengue fever makes the body hurt, so exhausted, to the point of not necessarily saying anything, "Linh worried.
Dengue fever in young children is unpredictable.According to the doctor, Dr. Nguyen Minh Tuan - Head of Dinemic Department (Children's Hospital 1), every day the hospital receives and treats 70-80 children with dengue fever.Many children come to the hospital in a state of high fever, difficulty breathing, nonsense, stimulation, unable to catch, shock to infusion, mechanical ventilation ... Emergency delayed, children can bleed in internal organs, liver failure, kidney failure, central nerve damage ... difficult to cure.
Dr. Tuan warns parents not to be subjective with the fluid, because dengue fever is very easy to make the body exhausted, then cause dangerous complications.Dengue fever is at the most powerful outbreak ever with 105,000 cases across the country, tripled last year and has killed 10 people.
Therefore, if the child shows signs of high fever with headaches, body pain ... then think of the first dengue fever, avoiding subjective that the usual fever.In the first 3 days of the fever, if the child has a fever above 39 degrees, parents need to give the child immediately to reduce the fever-containing Paracetamol, the dose of 10-15 mg/kg of weight/time, each 4-6 aparthour.For example, a child 17-25kg, the dose each time corresponds to a Hapacol 250mg package.For children under 12 years old, the dose does not exceed 1,000mg all day (4 packs 250mg).
Dr. Tuan also noted, absolutely do not use antipyretics of Aspirin, analgin, ibuprofen because it can cause bleeding, acidosis.This is a common mistake in both children and adults.If high fever does not lower, only take Paracetamol -containing pills combined with loosen clothes, wipe cool with warm water.In addition, actively offset the fluid by oral (Oresol water, cool boiling water, juice, porridge water diluted salt).
"If the fever is continuous 24 hours does not lower or high fever for 3 days, should go to the hospital immediately to do blood tests to determine dengue children or not, how severe, can be treated at home or must be imported.The Institute of Emergency, need to be infused or must be monitored to promptly detect serious complications ...
