Based on the provided UK clinical guidelines, specific recommendations for confirming a diagnosis of dengue fever in primary care are not detailed within NICE guidelines NG95 (Lyme disease), CG165 (chronic Hepatitis B), or PH43 (Hepatitis B and C testing) 1,2,3. However, the laboratory diagnosis of dengue virus infections is a subject covered in peer-reviewed medical literature (Nisalak, 2015). While the title of this literature indicates a focus on diagnostic methods, the specific recommended laboratory tests for confirming dengue fever in primary care, as detailed within the full text of Nisalak (2015), are not available in the provided context (Nisalak, 2015).
