Self-care practices and health-seeking behaviours in patients with dengue fever: A qualitative study from patients' and physicians' perspectives.

Introduction: Outpatient management for dengue fever is the mainstay of treatment for most dengue cases. However, severe dengue can develop rapidly while patients are at home. Understanding the self-care practices and healthcare-seeking behaviours among dengue patients managed as outpatients will help improve the delivery of care to these patients.

Factors influencing healthcare seeking in patients with dengue: Systematic review.

Objective: Delays in seeking healthcare for dengue are associated with poor health outcomes. Despite this, the factors influencing such delays remain unclear, rendering interventions to improve healthcare seeking for dengue ineffective. This systematic review aimed to synthesise the factors influencing healthcare seeking of patients with dengue and form a comprehensive framework.
