摘要

Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a mosquito-transmitted viral disease that hasbeen present in the Americas for the last 200 years. DHF has caused two major epidemics (Cuba, 1981 and Venezuela, 1989-1990), and sporadic cases have been documented in 12 other locations in the hemisphere, including Puerto Rico. DHF causes severe headache, bone and joint pains, and prostration. In some cases, it may produce hemorrhagic manifestations and death. This report assesses a comprehensive cross-sectional evaluation of the impact of the community-based denuge prevention pilot programs in Puerto Rico on: (1) dengue-related knowledge; (2) human behavior; and (3) indices of infestation of the mosquito (Aedes aegypti) carrying the disease. Surveys of knowledge and practices were administered to children and their parents, and surveys of the yards and homes of parents were conducted to describe the number and type of larval habitats of the Aedes aegypti mosquito. Focus-groups and in-depth interviews were also conducted. Surveys for mosquito larvae were conducted in 703 premises across five different study sites from April to June 10 1995.
