==Overview==
==Overview==
Marburg hemorrhagic fever must be differentiated from other viral hemorrhagic fevers that may cause fever, abdominal pain,and bleeding such as [[Ebola]], [[Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever]] (CCHF), [[Hantavirus infection|Hantavirus Infection]], [[Rift valley fever|Rift Valley fever]], Lujo hemorrhagic fever and [[Lassa fever]]. SInce many of the signs and symptoms of marburg hemorrhagic fever are similar to those of other infectious diseases such as [[malaria]] or [[Typhoid fever|typhoid]] fever, [[leptospirosis]], marburg hemorrhagic fever must also be differentiated from those infections.

Treatment should be based on the most likely etiology of fever according to local [[epidemiology]]. If the [[fever]] continues after 3 days of recommended treatment, and if the patient has [[signs]] such as [[bleeding]] or [[shock]], a viral hemorrhagic fever should be considered. It is important to review the patient’s history for any contact with someone who was ill with [[fever]] and [[bleeding]] or who died from an unexplained [[illness]] with [[fever]] and [[bleeding]].

Overview

Marburg hemorrhagic fever must be differentiated from other viral hemorrhagic fevers that may cause fever, abdominal pain,and bleeding such as Ebola, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF), Hantavirus Infection, Rift Valley fever, Lujo hemorrhagic fever and Lassa fever. SInce many of the signs and symptoms of marburg hemorrhagic fever are similar to those of other infectious diseases such as malaria or typhoid fever, leptospirosis, marburg hemorrhagic fever must also be differentiated from those infections.

Differentiating Marburg Hemorrhagic Fever from other Diseases

Marburg hemorrhagic fever must be differentiated from other viral hemorrhagic fevers that may cause fever, abdominal pain,and bleeding such as Ebola, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF), Hantavirus Infection, Rift Valley fever, Lujo hemorrhagic fever and Lassa fever. SInce many of the signs and symptoms of marburg hemorrhagic fever are similar to those of other infectious diseases such as malaria or typhoid fever, leptospirosis, marburg hemorrhagic fever must also be differentiated from those infections.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]
