Both groups will be subjected to rapid immunochromatographic dengue dengue NS1 (Bio‐Easy) E01.370 Procedure/surgery CONDITION: C02.081.270 Dengue ; C02.081.270 PRIMARY OUTCOME: Accurate, more sensitive and specific case definition to guide the rapid test request and appropriate referral of the case. To compare Likelihood Ratios and Diagnostic Odds Ratios of each model. Reliability of each clinical prediction rule measured by kappa values ??interpreted according to Landis and Koch, 1977. SECONDARY OUTCOME: Need to review clinical case defined as at least a return to emergency unit INCLUSION CRITERIA: Patients of both genders over 18 years assisted in Emergency Care Units in Rio de Janeiro, with fever for up to 3 days without other infectious etiology.
