title: [CLINICAL-EPIDEMIOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTIC OF WEST NILE FEVER IN KRASNODAR REGION].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Clinical-epidemiological characteristic of West Nile fever on the territory of Krasnodar Region in multi-year dynamics.
  
  
  METHODS
  Manifestations of epidemic process and clinical symptoms of West Nile fever (WNF) on the territory of Krasnodar Region were analyzed retrospectively from 1988 to 2013. Results of epidemiologic observations wiih inclusion of monitoring of arbovirus circulation, carried out by Prichernomorskaya Station of Plague Control and Centre of Hygiene and Epidemiology in Krasnodar Region were used. Clinical course of verified WNFwas studied in 62 patients, treated in the Specialized Clinical Infectious Hospital ofKrasnodar in 1999-2012.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Clinical-epidemiologic characteristic of cases of West Nile fever morbidity on the territory of Krasnodar Region is presented. The presence of acting foci of arbovirus infections was noted. Clinical signs of the disease are established, patients allocated into groups that require examination for West Nile fever.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Complex of entomologic-virologic monitoring, prophylactic and counter-epidemic measures was determined, that allow to prevent emergence of dangerous epidemiologic manifestations of foci of the disease in the future.
