Objective

Primary Objectives
                                            <div>●	To analyse clinical data and laboratory sample parameters to differentiate between dengue and non-dengue illness within the first 72 hours of fever for predicting the progression of dengue fever to more severe disease course, with the overall aim of developing a robust case definition for dengue.
</div><div>●	To identify virological correlations of severe dengue – in particular to assess plasma viremia and NS1 antigenemia within the first 72 hours of fever in patients with confirmed dengue.
</div><div>●	To identify early serological correlations of severe dengue, in order to characterize differences between severe and uncomplicated disease.
</div><div>●	To identify other infectious agents manifesting similar primary signs and symptoms as Dengue pathogenesis with the help of blood culture.
</div><div><br></div><div>Secondary Objectives
</div><div>●	To evaluate practical application of the original (WHO 1997) and the new dengue classification schemes (WHO 2009).
</div><div>●	To use the data to update the guidelines for Dengue risk factors proposed by WHO.</div><div>
