Abstract

We report a case of Plasmodium vivax malaria complicated by shock and ARDS. The patient responded to oral chloroquine and primaquine and PCR was positive for P. vivax DNA and negative for P. falciparum DNA. P. vivax may cause severe complications and where the possibility of mixed infections exists, blood should be sent for PCR analysis so that mixed infections can reliably be excluded.

摘要

我们报告一例间日疟原虫疟疾并发休克和急性呼吸窘迫综合征的病例。患者对口服氯喹和伯氨喹有反应，聚合酶链反应（PCR）检测显示间日疟原虫DNA呈阳性，恶性疟原虫DNA呈阴性。间日疟原虫可能导致严重并发症，在存在混合感染可能性的情况下，应送检血液进行PCR分析，以便可靠地排除混合感染。
