Early Diagnosis and Prompt Treatment (EDPT) :
Early diagnosis of a suspected case of Dengue is very important to decrease morbidity and mortality due to Dengue. A physician/ medical officer can suspect a fever case to be a suspected case of Dengue by recognizing the signs and symptoms of the disease. Laboratory confirmation of a suspected case can be done by Ig M Mac ELISA test for Dengue which is done free of cost at 10 Sentinel Surveillance Hospitals throughout Punjab as identified by GOI. The testing kits are supplied free of cost by GOI from NIV (National Institute of Virology) Pune. From 2011, as per recommendations of GOI, testing with NS1 Ag ELISA kits will be started at these SSHs in Punjab in the early stage of dengue for early diagnosis. Treatment is provided free of cost to all the patients of Dengue at all the Health centres throughout the State of Punjab.
