CBC and Hct were done daily till
defervescence. A rise in Hct from baseline is considered one of the indicators of plasma leak in DSS 1.
reported a decrease in socs1 expression in DHF with respect to DF patients, which was associated with low levels of IFN-[gamma] and high levels of IL-10 during
defervescence [27], similar to our results.
Typically, symptomatic disease follows three phases: a febrile phase lasting 3 to 7 days; a critical phase characterized by
defervescence, during which complications appear in a small proportion of patients; and a spontaneous recovery phase.
(3,8) Although there are no definite guidelines regarding duration of anticoagulation therapy for cases of OVT, febrile patients should be anticoagulated for at least 48 hours after
defervescence.
The critical phase begins around the time of
defervescence. This is when clinically significant plasma leakage can occur, with resultant compensated or decompensated shock and other severe complications.
Dapsone, rifampin and clofazimine were introduced and the patient's condition improved the following weeks with discoloration of skin lesions and
defervescence. Three weeks later, she developed high-grade fever, progressive generalised edema, dyspnea and bullous skin lesions on both upper arms.
Defervescence, typically 3-7 days after illness onset, defines the start of the critical phase, which typically lasts 24-48 hours.
antibiotic therapy was continued for at least 7 days and 3-5 days after
defervescence. In case of FUO, i.v.
The platelets usually drop to below 100000/mm3 in febrile phase or around
defervescence and may remain low for the first few days of recovery.3
In view of acute inguinal lymphadenitis, the child was started on intravenous cloxacillin but there was neither resolution of lymphadenitis nor
defervescence of fever even after five days of antibiotics.
