INTRODUCTION

• Japanese Encephalitis is a viral disease

• caused by an arbovirus, group B (Flavivirus) transmitted by culex mosquitoes.

• It is transmitted by infective bites of female mosquitoes mainly belonging to Culextritaeniorhynchus, Culex vishnui and Culexpseudovishnui group.

• JE virus is primarily zoonotic in its natural cycle and man is an accidental host.

• JE virus is neurotropic primarily affects CNS.

DISTRIBUTION

• Occurs almost all Asian countries.

• Japan, Korea and some parts of china,

The disease is increasingly reported from.

Bangladesh,India,Pakistan,Nepal,Bhutan, Burma, Sri Lanka and Thailand In the form of-outbreaks, sporadic cases and endemic.

• 30% to75%-disability.

Transmission

JE in man

• Incubation -5-15 days.

• Not all individuals bitten by the infected mosquitoes develop the disease.

• The ratio of overt disease of in apparent infection varies from 1:300 to 1:1000.

LethargySudden fever

Vomiting and diarrhea

Tremors or convulsions

Headache Change in consciousness

Irritability or restlessness

Common symptoms of encephalitis

Signs & Symptoms

• Symptoms can include headache, fever, meningeal signs, weakness, disorientation, coma, tremors, paralysis (generalized), loss of coordination, etc.

• Prodromal stage may be abrupt (1-6 hours), acute (6-24 hours) or more commonly subacute (2-5 days)

cont

a) Prodromal stage- fever,- headache, - malaise, - lasts 1-6 days.

a) Acute encephalitic stage: high fever, neck rigidity, , convulsions, death may occur.

c) Late stage & sequelae: symptoms of CNS involvement starts disappearing and convulsion are prolonged.The period between the onset of illness and death is about 9 days.

Dignosis

Clinical:

febrile illness of variable severity associated with neurological symptoms ranging from headache to meningitis or encephalitis.

Symptoms can include headache, fever, meningeal signs, stupor, disorientation, coma, tremors, paralysis (generalized), hypertonia , loss of coordination.

cont

• Laboratory:

• Antibody detection: Heamagglutination Inhibition Test (HI), Compliment Fixation Test (CF), Enzyme Linked Immuno-Sorbant Assay (ELISA) for IgG (paired) and IgM(MAC) antibodies, etc.

• Antigen Detection: RPHA, IFA, Immunoperoxidase etc. • Genome Detection - RTPCR • Isolation - Tissue culture, Infant mice, etc • In view of the limitations associated with various tests,

IgM ELISA is the method of choice provided samples are collected 3-5 days after the infection.

Treatment of Japanese Encephalitis

There is no specific anti-viral medicine available against JE virus.

• Clinical management of JE is supportive and in the acute phase is directed at maintaining fluid and electrolyte balance and control of convulsions, if present. Maintenance of airway is crucial.

THE STEPS TAKEN BY GOVT. OF INDIA TOWARDS PREVENTION

AND CONTROL OF AES/JE ARE AS FOLLOWS• JE vaccination campaign was launched during 2006 wherein 11

most sensitive districts in Assam, Karnataka and Uttar Pradesh were covered. Altogether 86 JE endemic districts in the states of Assam, Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Haryana, Goa, Karnataka, Kerala, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal have been covered.

• During 2009-2010 an amount of Rs.2.90 crores was allocated to the JE endemic states.

• Re-orientation training course on JE case management is a continuing process. Such orientating training courses were carried out in Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Haryana, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal during 2008 and 2009 respectively.

• The diagnostic facilities have been strengthened at 50 sentinel and 13 Apex Referral Laboratories including 15 sentinel sites established in Uttar Pradesh. These have been supplied with diagnostic kits free of cost from National Institute of Virology (NIV), Pune.

• Guidelines were developed on JE case management and on prevention and control of Entero-viruses which have been circulated to the states.

• For establishing a Physical, Medicine & Rehabilitation (PMR) department at BRD Medical College for treating physical disabilities due to AES/JE, MOU has been submitted to the state of Uttar Pradesh.

• One Vector Borne Disease Surveillance Unit (VBDSU) and one JE sub-office was established at BRD Medical College, Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh.

• Further, for establishing 50 bedded AES/JE treatment facilities at BRD Medical College, Gorakhpur, an amount of Rs.5.88 crores has been released under NRHM during 2009-10.

Chikungunya

• Chikungunya (chik.-en-GUN-yah), also called chikungunya virus disease or chikungunya fever, is a viral illness that is spread by the bite of infected mosquitoes. The disease resembles dengue fever, and is characterized by severe, sometimes persistent, joint pain(arthiritis), as well as fever and rash. It is rarely life-threatening.

• Chikungunya occurs in Africa, India and Southeast Asia. It is primarily found in urban /peri-urban areas.

• Incubation 4-7 dys

Transmitted by Ades mosquito

Statement of the problem

• 1st found in Tanzania 1952-53

• First out break in india at Kolkota 1963-64

• Chennai 1965 viz gave rise to 300000 cases in chennai city alone

• The disease has reappered after 41 years during 2006 ther was largeoutbreak in indiawith 1.3 million officially reported cases spread over 16 states

• The states affected by chikungunya are Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharasthra, TamilNadu, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Kerala, A&N Island, GNCT of Delhi, Rajasthan,Pondicherry, Goa.

Transmission

• Chikungunya is spread by the bite of an

Aedes mosquito, primarily Aedes aegypti.

• Humans are thought to be the major source,

or reservoir, of chikungunya virus for

mosquitoes. Therefore, the mosquito usually

transmits the disease by biting an infected

person and then biting someone else. An

infected person cannot spread the infection

directly to other persons.

Host

• Man

• Age: all ages

• Sex: both

Signs & symptoms• Abrupt onset of fever

• Severe joint pain.

• Other S/S

Muscle pain,

Headache,

Nausea,

Fatigue and rash.

• Joint pain is often very debilitating,

Diagnosis

• Chikungunya is diagnosed by blood tests (ELISA). Since the clinical appearance of both chikungunya and dengue are similar, laboratory confirmation is important especially in areas where dengue is present.

• Diagnosis by Real Time – Polymerase chain reaction (RT–PCR) Test

Treatment

• There is no specific treatment for chikungunya. Supportive therapy that helps ease symptoms, such as administration of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and getting plenty of rest, may be beneficial.

• Infected persons should be isolated from mosquitoes as much as possible in order to avoid transmission of infection to other people.

Vector control measures

1.Indoor space spraying:

Pyrethrum extract after dilution is sprayed

Advantages of Indoor pyrethrum space spray:

Non-toxic to humans and other non-target organisms

Not developed resistance

Equipment is cheap, and easily available

2 Outdoor space spraying

Ultra Low Volume (ULV) Spray:

Minimum volume of liquid insecticide formulation

Organo-phosphorous insecticides (malathion)

More cost-effective than thermal fogging

Control and prevention

• Avoiding mosquito bites. Eliminating mosquito breeding site

• Use mosquito repellents on skin and clothing

When indoors, stay in well-screened areas. Use bed nets if sleeping in areas that are not screened or air-conditioned.

• By elimination of all potential vector breeding places near the domestic or peridomestic areas.

• Not allowing the storage of water for more than a week.

• Straining of the stored water by using a clean cloth once a week to remove the mosquito larvae from the water and the water can be reused. The sieved cloth should be dried in the sun to kill immature stages of mosquitoes.

Use of larvicides• Where the water cannot be removed but used for

cattle or other purposes,Temephos can be used once a week at a dose of 1 ppm(parts per million).

• Pyrethrum extract (0.1% ready-to-use emulsion) can be sprayed in rooms (notoutside) to kill the adult mosquitoes hiding in the house.Biological control

• Like introduction of larvivorous fish, namely Gambusiaand Guppy in water tanksand other water sources.
