Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever is the most geographically widespread tick-borne virus, with infection resulting in mortality in up to 30% of cases. Clinical diagnosis alone is difficult due to the nonspecific nature of symptoms; therefore, laboratory diagnostics should be utilized for patients with residence in or travel to regions of endemicity in whom the disease is suspected. This minireview provides an overview of laboratory tests available for Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) and their utility in diagnosis with a focus on diagnosing CCHF in humans.
克里米亚-刚果出血热是地理分布最广泛的蜱传病毒,感染导致高达30%的病例死亡。由于症状的非特异性,仅靠临床诊断困难;因此,对于居住在或前往流行地区且疑似感染该疾病的患者,应采用实验室诊断。本综述概述了可用于克里米亚-刚果出血热(CCHF)的实验室检测及其在诊断中的应用,重点是人类CCHF的诊断。
