[The value of an immunocapture method for the study of serum IgM in the surveillance of dengue in Martinique].
The use of IgM capture ELISA for surveillance of dengue in Martinique is described. This only pathogenic for human population arbovirus infection, which the transmission is caused by bites of haematophagous diptera like Aedes (Aedes aegypti principally) show an active circulation in Martinique. Clinical evolution was always benign among the adults and the children. To date no case of dengue haemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome (the World Health Organization criteria) was not reported in Martinique.
