  • This is a retrospective study conducted in Malaysia to examine dengue deaths due bleeding  from June 2006 to October 2007.
  • There were ten fatal dengue cases between the periods of June 2006 to October 2007. 
  • Nine cases were female.
  •  The age range was between 11 to 59 years with a median age of 32 years. Adults over 18 years old comprised 80% of all the fatal cases.

  • Clinical management of dengue relies on careful monitoring of fluid balance combined with judicious intravenous (IV) fluid therapy. However, in patients with significant vascular leakage IV fluids may aggravate serosal fluid accumulation and result in respiratory distress.
