ICD-11 code : 1D49;
Preferred Label : Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever;
ICD-11 definition : A disease caused by an infection with Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever virus. The
incubation period ranges from 2 to 9 days. Symptoms/signs typically include high fever,
headache, malaise, arthralgia, myalgia, nausea, abdominal pain, and rarely diarrhea.
Early signs typically include fever, hypotension, conjunctivitis, and cutaneous flushing
or a skin rash. Later, patients may develop signs of progressive hemorrhagic diathesis,
such as petechiae, mucous membrane and conjunctival hemorrhage, hematuria, hematemesis,
and melena. Lethality may reach 30%. Transmission occurs via bites of infected ticks,
by direct contact with infected animal blood, or iatrogenic transmission. Laboratory
diagnosis of the infection during the acute phase of illness consists of detection
of viral nucleic acid or by isolation of the virus or by demonstration of viral antigen
by enzyme-linked immunoassay from serum or plasma samples. In samples collected later
during the illness, diagnosis is confirmed by demonstration of specific IgG and IgM
antibodies.;
