Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a viral hemorrhagic fever which is transmitted by tick bites, or through contact with infected animal tissues or secretions during and immediately post slaughter. It can be responsible for severe outbreaks in humans.
We have explained 10 patients of CCHF, which was acquired during the first outbreak in northwest of Iran. All 10 patients were admitted to our hospital and all were treated promptly by ribavirin.
In this outbreak, 51 blood samples were collected from suspected patients and sent to Pasteur Institute of Iran for additional assessments. CCHF was confirmed by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in 19.60% of patients.
High movement of livestock and vectors in spring and summer seasons is one of the major causes of virus circulation in northwestern Iran.
克里米亚-刚果出血热（CCHF）是一种病毒性出血热，通过蜱叮咬传播，或在屠宰过程中和屠宰后立即接触受感染动物的组织或分泌物传播。它可导致人类严重暴发疫情。
我们解释了 10 例在伊朗西北部首次暴发期间感染的 CCHF 患者。所有 10 例患者均被收入我院，并立即用利巴韦林进行了治疗。
在此次暴发中，从疑似患者中采集了 51 份血样并送往伊朗巴斯德研究所进行进一步评估。19.60%的患者通过逆转录聚合酶链反应（RT-PCR）确诊为 CCHF。
春季和夏季牲畜和媒介的大量移动是伊朗西北部病毒循环的主要原因之一。
