Dengue is an endemic disease in Puerto Rico, with three to nine thousand suspected dengue cases reported yearly. In PR, physicians are required to maintain medical education courses about dengue in order to recertify their medical licenses. The purpose of this study was to describe characteristics of patients admitted to Bella Vista Hospital with suspected dengue and estimate the compliance with guidelines established by the CDC documented in medical records. A total of 197 medical records of patients admitted with diagnosis of suspected dengue during January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013 were reviewed. The annual distribution of admitted cases showed a higher incidence during the months of June through September, with August having the higher incidence of all. Combined aches and pains were most commonly reported at admission with a prevalence of 82%. In general there was a low prevalence of severe disease as per definition at presentation (DM, clinical fluid accumulation, hepatomegaly, pregnancy and/or renal insufficiency). Overall, compliance with CDC established guidelines were only partially followed. The guideline that was followed more frequently was a daily CBC, with 95% of patients having this as part of their management. Prevalence of administration of isotonic intravenous fluids was 63%, monitoring of vital signs was 48%), and administration of bolus of intravenous fluid was11%.
