摘要

Dengue is a hemorrhagic virus contracted via the bite of a mosquito. Due to extreme changes in weather, increasing travel and immigration from tropical and subtropical climates, and increasing numbers of mosquito-borne illnesses, dengue virus infection presents a growing threat to the United States. The purpose of this article is to present etiology, pathology, management, and the latest treatment of dengue virus to prepare advanced practice nurses for early assessment and treatment of dengue virus.
