Viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHFS) are acute infections with high mortality rates. (taq-polymerase-dna.com)
Viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHFs) refer to a group of illnesses that are caused by several families of viruses, including filoviruses (Ebola and Marburg viruses), Old World arenaviruses (Lassa and Lujo viruses), New World arenaviruses (e.g. (cdc.gov)
Viral Haemor2
Viral haemorrhagic fevers (VHFs) are severe viral infections capable of causing vital death associated with multi-organ failure resulting in high mortality rates. (omicsonline.org)
These RDTs could enable early detection and thereby control and prevention of viral haemorrhagic fevers (VHFs) at the point of care within village settings. (who.int)
Ebola2
Some VHFs cause mild disease, but some, like Ebola or Marburg, cause severe disease and death. (medlineplus.gov)
Ebola) survivor could be infected by a virus that causes one of the other VHFs included in CSTE position statement 21-ID-04 (ex. (cdc.gov)
Severe1
Some VHFs cause relatively mild illness, while others can cause severe, life threatening disease. (cdc.gov)
Occur3
Outbreaks of VHFs in people can be difficult to prevent since they can occur sporadically and cannot be easily predicted. (cdc.gov)
Outbreaks of VHFs occur sporadically and irregularly, and their occurrence can be difficult to predict. (cdc.gov)
VHFs occur worldwide but many are restricted to remote areas of Africa and South America. (fitfortravel.nhs.uk)
Handheld1
On a smaller dinghy or on the dock, there are also handheld VHFs used to communicate. (gobroadreach.com)
Portable1
These are the next-gen portable VHFs, which enclose many features of traditional fixed stations in a compact and handy transceiver.We have selected 8 special models for you. (barcheamotore.com)
Person-to-per2
For many VHFs, person-to-person transmission can then continue, often through direct contact or in healthcare facilities without adequate infection control procedures. (cdc.gov)
With limited effective vaccinations or drug treatments available, some VHFs are treated only with basic medical care, which is not always adequate to prevent virus spread and save lives. (cdc.gov)
This review aims to highlight a recent spread of VHFs in North Africa in the light of political instability associated with massive immigration from the endemic areas of West African countries. (omicsonline.org)
Features1
VHFs have common features: they affect many organs, they damage the blood vessels, and they affect the body's ability to regulate itself. (medlineplus.gov)
Group1
På samme måde har Killybegs-baserede KER Group også været en hovedbidragsyder til det nye skib, ved at have leveret det fulde RSW-maskiner og vakuum losse anlæg. (fiskerforum.dk)
Speaker1
High-quality waterproof amplified communications speaker designed to operate with Marine VHFs with a maximum of ten watts output power. (binnacle.com)
Viral haemor1
Viruses in the genera Ebolavirus and Marburgvirus belong to the family Filoviridae and cause classical viral haemorrhagic fevers (VHFs) in humans, which are associated with high morbidity and mortality and pose a serious threat to human and animal populations in endemic countries. (biomedcentral.com)
Lassa2
Dengue fever, Yellow fever, Crimean Congo fever, Hantavirus and Lassa fever are other types of VHFs you may have heard of. (hopethroughhealinghands.org)
Lassa fever, yellow fever and Marburg fever are other examples of VHFs. (amalgamate-safety.com)
Humans1
There are four VHFs that are of major concern from an Infection Control Perspective as they can be transmitted directly from humans to humans, and are a hazard for staff handling blood samples. (diseasesdic.com)
Body's1
VHFs have common features: they affect many organs, they damage the blood vessels, and they affect the body's ability to regulate itself. (medlineplus.gov)
Dengue1
Other VHFs show not only similarities to severe dengue in terms of symptoms, but also in the transmission vector. (biomedcentral.com)
Mortality2
To assess the state of the art around VHFs, we conducted a systematic review for all reports and clinical studies that included specific results on number of cases, mortality and treatment of VHFs. (bvsalud.org)
For several VHFs, no specific investigational therapeutic option with strong proof of effectiveness on mortality was identified. (bvsalud.org)
Diseases1
If one of these VHFs is suspected seek immediate advice from the on-call consultant infectious diseases physician and consultant medical microbiologist. (diseasesdic.com)
Current2
Contact an epidemiologist in CDC's Viral Special Pathogens Branch for questions about current outbreaks of VHFs or for consultation on VHF testing: call 470-312-0094 or email [email protected] . (medscape.com)
EPIRBs, PLBs, and GPS-linked DSC VHFs are now common on boats, and laser flares are becoming increasingly available, yet none of these technologies are recognised in the current UK regulations regarding emergency signalling. (mby.com)
Build1
All three VHFs build on the strong reputation of the SAILOR brand of being reliable, powerful and very user- friendly, developed for the harsh environment at sea, whether on board a large merchant vessel or a small fishing vessel. (geoborders.com)
Treatment1
The number of studies on VHF treatments was very limited with very few randomized trials and no strong proof of effectiveness of treatment against most of the VHFs. (bvsalud.org)
High1
High-quality waterproof amplified communications speaker designed to operate with Marine VHFs with a maximum of ten watts output power. (binnacle.com)
Patients1
However, CDC's algorithms are not intended to be comprehensive guidelines and should be used in conjunction with your hospital's established policies for managing suspected or confirmed VHFs and other febrile patients with international travel history. (medscape.com)
Control1
Factors that should weigh into the decision include whether the patient is clinically stable enough to travel (i.e., whether the patient's condition is likely to deteriorate during transport and if there is reasonable capability to manage en route), and whether personnel providing care during transport are trained in clinical management, infection control, and correct use of PPE.
