Compliance of WHO Guideline on Dengue Management among Indian Patients: An Interventional Quality Improvement Study.

Conclusion: The study affirms that the compliance to WHO guideline on dengue management in India can be further improved by regular physician training on the guideline. Simultaneously, this educational intervention not only improves patient outcomes but also direct proper resource utilization especially platelet transfusion and antibiotic use. Furthermore, every hospital/institute should have an internal quality improvement program like this to improve the management of dengue patients. Future studies are needed to understand various barriers to 100% implementation of the guideline. PMID: 31299835 [PubMed - in process]
