Treatment

Treatments, management plans for Argentine hemorrhagic fever Patients diagnosed with viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHF) receive supportive therapy, but generally, there is no other treatment or established cure for VHFs. [naturalpedia.com]

AHF has had significant morbidity since its emergence in the 1950s, with a case-fatality rate of the illness without treatment between 15% and 30%. The use of a live attenuated vaccine has markedly reduced the incidence of AHF. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The initial introduction of treatment serums in the 1970s reduced this lethality. [wikidoc.org]

Treatment may include hydration, rest, warmth, and adequate nutrition. Supportive therapy and antiviral drugs may also help prevent complications. [diseaseinfosearch.org]

The initial introduction of treatment serums in the 1970s reduced this lethality. The Candid #1 vaccine for AHF was created in 1985 by Argentine virologist Dr. Julio Barrera Oro. [en.wikipedia.org]

Prognosis

Usually, the prognosis is complete recovery. See also Arenavirus, Bolivian hemorrhagic fever, Lassa fever. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]

Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis AHF is a grave acute disease which may progress to recovery or death in 1 to 2 weeks. [wikidoc.org]

Etiology

In this report, we describe the development of an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay for the etiologic confirmation of the disease, based on recombinant antigens expressed in insect cells. [nora.nerc.ac.uk]

Important achievements have been made in: (a) improvement of methods for the etiological diagnosis; (b) implementation and validation of therapeutical measures; (c) development of vaccines to protect against AHF. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Summary Propagation of Junin virus, the etiological agent of Argentinian hemorrhagic fever, has been studied in a variety of cell cultures. [link.springer.com]

[…] ratio is >15%, but treatment reduces the mortality rate to 3 and a white blood cell (WBC) count of 3 had a sensitivity and specificity of 87% and 88%, respectively, thus suggesting that the use of these criteria in a case definition would be helpful for epidemiological [academic.oup.com]

Pathophysiology

In humans, the pathophysiology of the Junin virus is yet to be fully understood. Known side effects of Argentine hemorrhagic fever AHF infection is often mild or subclinical. [naturalpedia.com]

Prevention

Different approaches to obtain an effective antigen to prevent AHF using complete live or inactivated virus, as well as molecular constructs, have reached diverse development stages. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

No FDA-approved preventive or treatment currently exists for this virus. [grantome.com]

Supportive therapy and antiviral drugs may also help prevent complications. A vaccine for the virus became available in 1990 and is therefore a method of prevention for contracting the virus. [diseaseinfosearch.org]

Candid 1, the first vaccine for the prevention of illness caused by an arenavirus, is safe and highly efficacious. [jhu.pure.elsevier.com]
