Abstract
Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) poses a substantial public health threat, with potentially lethal consequences for affected adults. This article explores the critical risk factors associated with lethal DHF in adult populations. Factors such as age, secondary infections, pre-existing health conditions, delayed medical care, socioeconomic circumstances, mosquito exposure, and the individual's immune response are examined in detail. Understanding these risk factors is paramount for early detection, improved clinical management, and the development of effective prevention strategies in the fight against this severe manifestation of dengue virus infection.
