 SAMPLE CHARTING

Ms. Andrea Ramos, a 45-year-old patient diagnosed with Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (Day 4), was
admitted for close monitoring due to risks associated with the critical phase of the illness. Throughout
May 7, 2025, her vital signs showed gradual improvement: her temperature decreased from 38.5°C in
the morning to 37.2°C by night, with stable blood pressure and heart rate. She received intravenous D5
0.3 NaCl at 100 mL/hr, totaling 1000 mL, and was encouraged to take oral fluids including juice, soup,
and sips of water, contributing an additional 250 mL. Her total fluid intake was 1250 mL. Output
included 570 mL of urine and 100 mL from one episode of vomiting, for a total output of 670 mL,
resulting in a positive fluid balance of +580 mL. She was administered paracetamol for fever and
monitored for signs of bleeding and fluid overload. By evening, gum bleeding was noted, and oral fluids
were withheld due to nausea. Despite mild discomfort and early signs of bleeding, Ms. Ramos remained
alert, and her overall condition was stable, with continuous monitoring advised.
