Clinical Information

  • A disorder caused by hantaviruses of the family bunyaviridae. It is transmitted by rodents and is manifested with fever, hemorrhage, and renal failure. Other symptoms include headaches, abdominal and back pain, and blurred vision.
  • An acute febrile disease occurring predominately in asia. It is characterized by fever, prostration, vomiting, hemorrhagic phenonema, shock, and renal failure. It is caused by any one of several closely related species of the genus hantavirus. The most severe form is caused by hantaan virus whose natural host is the rodent apodemus agrarius. Milder forms are caused by seoul virus and transmitted by the rodents rattus rattus and r. Norvegicus, and the puumala virus with transmission by clethrionomys galreolus.
  • Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (hps) is a rare but deadly viral infection. It is spread by mice and rats. They shed the virus in their urine, droppings and saliva. Tiny droplets with the virus can enter the air. People can get the disease if they breathe infected air or come into contact with rodents or their urine or droppings. You cannot catch it from people.early symptoms of hps include
    • fatigue
    • fever
    • muscle aches, especially in the thighs, hips and back
    • headaches
    • chills
    • dizziness
    • nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or abdominal pain
    later symptoms include coughing and shortness of breath. Controlling rodents in and around your house is the best way to protect yourself from infection. If you have been around rodents and have symptoms of fever, deep muscle aches, and severe shortness of breath, see your doctor immediately. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
  • Infections with viruses of the genus hantavirus. This is associated with at least four clinical syndromes: hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome caused by viruses of the hantaan group; a milder form of hfrs caused by seoul virus; nephropathia epidemica caused by puumala virus; and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome caused by sin nombre virus.
  • Mild form of hfrs rarely hemorrhagic and seldom fatal. Caused by the puumala virus.
