Trial summary

Exanthematous fevers are a global public health problem. The spread of arboviruses due to various factors, including climate change, has resulted in major epidemics such as the one that occurred in Brazil in 2024, representing an extremely concerning scenario from both epidemiological and healthcare perspectives.

About this study

Exanthematous fevers are a global public health problem. The spread of arboviruses due to various factors, including climate change, has resulted in major epidemics such as the one that occurred in Brazil in 2024, representing an extremely concerning scenario from both epidemiological and healthcare perspectives. In addition to this, the reemergence of childhood exanthematous diseases in several countries, including Brazil, is alarming and occurs due to declining vaccination coverage and increased migratory movements. These diseases present overlapping clinical symptoms, and their differential diagnosis is often challenging, which, in a context of dengue and Chikungunya epidemics like the current one, may lead to underreporting of diseases such as measles and rubella. This project aims to build a prospective registry of the occurrence of dengue, Chikungunya, measles, and rubella in various healthcare centers in Brazil, in order to better understand the epidemiological scenario, identify clinical variables associated with different diagnoses, and describe healthcare bottlenecks that may hinder proper reporting and identification of these diseases.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Exanthema and Dengue Fever, run by Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Aug 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Henrique R A da Fonseca, PhD (+551121511233, henrique.fonseca@einstein.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Prevalence of positive infections for one or more infectious diseases (rubella, measles, dengue, and Chikungunya) (time frame: From enrollment to the end of follow-up (30 days).). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Aug 2025.
