Main Article Content

Abstract

Objectives: To analyze the prevalence of dengue virus infection in pediatric patients in several epidemics in Ho Chi Minh City, Tien Giang, and Dong Nai provinces. Subjects and methods: 344 pediatric patients diagnosed with febrile dengue phase within three days of fever, admitted to the Department of Pediatrics at Children Hospital No.1 in Ho Chi Minh City, Tien Giang General Hospital and Dong Nai Children Hospital from January 2011 to December 2015, Participation in the study was voluntary and agreed to participate in the study by their relatives and family members. Carry out serum collection of the patient, RNA extraction. Using Multiplex RT-PCR reaction to determine dengue virus serotypes. Results: Patients infected with type 1 (DENV-1), type 2 (DENV-2), type 3 (DENV-3) and type 4 (DENV-4) accounted for 34.01%, 19,77%, 5.52% and 40.70% respectively. Conclusion: There are all four dengue virus serotypes in outbreaks during the study period, with Type 4 (DENV-4) has the highest proportion, and the lowest is type 3 (DENV-3).
