RESUMO

La fiebre de Chikungunya (CHIK) es una enfermedad vírica emergente. Está causada por un virus ARN del género alfavirus y la familia Togaviridae: el virus de Chikungunya. Se transmite a los humanos por la picadura de mosquitos infectados, principalmente Aedes aegypti y Aedes albopictus. Dichos mosquitos están implicados en la transmisión de otras enfermedades (dengue, malaria, otros alfavirus, etc.). Actualmente la CHIK es endémica en algunas regiones de África y del Sudeste Asiático. Se han descrito casos en Latinoamérica, Caribe y Europa (Francia, Italia y España). En España existen reservorios de los mosquitos vectores en áreas mediterráneas (Cataluña, Alicante, Murcia y las Islas Baleares). Clínicamente, la CHIK se caracteriza por fiebre elevada de inicio súbito y artromialgias simétricas graves o incluso invalidantes. Suele mejorar en días o semanas, existiendo formas graves y crónicas. No existen tratamiento ni profilaxis específicos para la CHIK. Proponemos un algoritmo de manejo basado en las últimas guías (AU)


Chikungunya fever (CHIK) is an emerging viral disease. It is caused by the Chikungunya virus, analphavirus from the Togaviridae family. It is transmitted to humans by the bite of infected mosquitoes, mainly Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. They are also involved in the transmission of dengue, malaria, etc. CHIK is now endemic in any region of Africa and Southeast-Asia. Cases of CHIK have been reported in America, the Caribbean, and Europe (France, Italy and Spain). There are reservoirs of these mosquitoes in some regions of Spain (Catalonia, Alicante, Murcia and Balearic islands). CHIK is characterized by a sudden high and debilitating fever, and severe or disabling symmetrical arthralgia. It tends to improve in days or weeks. There are severe and chronic forms of CHIK. There is no specific treatment or prophylaxis for CHIK. An algorithm is proposed for the clinical management of CHIK based in the latest guidelines (AU)
