Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a disease caused by the bite of the Aedes Aegypti mosquito infected with one of the four types of dengue virus with clinical manifestations of fever, muscle aches, and/or joint pain accompanied by leukopenia, rash, lymphadenopathy, thrombocytopenia and hemorrhagic diathesis. In dengue hemorrhagic fever, plasma leakage occurs which is characterized by hemoconcentration (increased hematocrit) or fluid accumulation in body cavities (World Health Organization). Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever Penyakit (DHF) is still one of the main public health problems in Indonesia. The number of sufferers and the area of ​​spread of DHF is increasing along with the increase in mobility and population density, especially in tropical and sub-tropical areas (Kemenkes RI, 2010). At the beginning of 2019, Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) again increased in several areas, even becoming an Extraordinary Event (KLB) status. In January 2019 there were 15,132 DHF sufferers with 145 people dying in 34 provinces. This figure is twice as high as the figure at the end of January 2018 which recorded 6,167 DHF sufferers with 43 people dying. To find out the behavioral factors of DHF disease in the community in the Pondok Petir sub-district area in 2020. Research Setting: According to data in 2019, Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) has increased again in several areas, even becoming an Extraordinary Event (KLB) status. In January 2019 there were 15,132 DHF sufferers with 145 people dying in 34 provinces. This figure is twice as high as the figure at the end of January 2018 which recorded 6,167 DHF sufferers with 43 people dying. East Java, West Java, and DKI Jakarta are the three provinces that experienced an increase in the number of dengue cases compared to the previous year. This research uses the Simple Random Sampling technique. This study studied the incidence of dengue in children to adults (dependent variable), with respondent characteristics (age, history of dengue disease), counseling (knowledge), attitudes (family attitudes), and behavioral patterns (behavior of health workers, rarely monitoring larvae). mosquitoes, distribution of abate powder, fogging activities), and increasing community participation in dengue prevention (independent variable). To obtain the data, an in-depth interview and document review approach was conducted with the community at Pondok Petir. This research was conducted at Pondok Petir, South Tangerang in June 2021. The sub-categories in this study were DHF, Age, History of DHF, Knowledge, Family Attitude, Behavioral Patterns, Behavioral Patterns of Health Workers, Rarely Monitoring Mosquito Larvae, Distribution of Abate Powder, Fogging Activities, Facilities, Facilities, Increased Participation Society in Dengue Prevention. It takes a lot of education to the people of Pondok Petir to make people aware of the importance of knowing about DHF. The most effective and efficient prevention of dengue fever to date is the Mosquito Nest Eradication (PSN) activity using 3M Plus, namely: 1) Draining, is cleaning places that are often used as water reservoirs such as bathtubs, water buckets, water reservoirs drinking water, water reservoirs, refrigerators, etc. 2) Closing, namely closing water reservoirs such as drums, jugs, water towers, and so on; and 3) Reusing or recycling used goods that have the potential to become breeding grounds for dengue-transmitting mosquitoes.

Dengue hemorrhagic fever, a severe, often fatal, illness, occurs mostly in children and is characterized by a hemorrhagic diathesis, fever, vomiting, a maculopapular rash, liver involvement, and occasionally, a protein-losing shock syndrome.1 This disease is to be differentiated from dengue fever, a relatively benign disease occurring primarily in adults and manifested by myalgia, arthralgia, bone pain, and leukopenia. Cases of dengue fever in North America have been described among travellers from the Carribean.2-6 Dengue hemorrhagic fever is an epidemic disease described after World War II and limited to areas of Southeast Asia, India, and the Pacific islands.7-8 We believe this to be the first reported case in North America of dengue hemorrhagic fever with disseminated intravascular coagulation in a child of Southeast Asian origin.

Introduction: Dengue viral infections are among the most important mosquito-borne diseases of the Indian subcontinent and have become a major global public health concern. Spread of disease has led to increased recognition of atypical manifestations apart from the classical clinical features of dengue infection. Methodology: A cross-sectional study of admitted patients suspected to have dengue infection was conducted during the monsoon and post-monsoon seasons in the year 2010. Patients who had serological confirmation of dengue infection were classified according to World Health Organization definitions of dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever. Clinical and biochemical parameters were compared between the two groups. Results: Out of 356 patients with suspected dengue fever enrolled in the study, 138 (39%) had serologically confirmed dengue infection. Eighty (58%) patients were males and 58 (42%) were females. Ninety-six (70%) patients had classical dengue fever while 42 (30%) had dengue hemorrhagic fever. The most common symptoms were headache (105, 76%), abdominal pain (87, 63%), vomiting (80, 58%), rash (36, 26%), and cutaneous hypersensitivity (22, 16%). Hemorrhagic manifestations were present in 55 (40%) patients. Atypical manifestations were recorded. Notably, 14% of patients had neurological involvement and 4% had acute hepatic failure. Overall mortality was 6% and all fatal cases were due to multi-organ failure. Conclusion: Dengue infection poses a huge burden to the health-care system; its spectrum ranges from mild self-limiting illness to severe fatal disease. It can have varied and multi-systemic manifestations which can go unrecognized. Clinicians should have a high index of suspicion for atypical manifestations.
