Objective To investigate the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS),and to improve the understanding and cure rate of SFTS. Method The epidemiological and clinical data of 992 SFTS patients in Xinyang City from 2018 to 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Among 992 cases of SFTS,23.19% were severe cases,and the average fatality rate was 14.95%.There was significant difference in the fatality rate of SFTS from 2018 to 2020 (χ2=49.852,P<0.001).There were 395 males and 597 females,with a male/female ratio of 1:1.51.The number of patients aged 60-69 was the largest,accounting for 35.08%,and farmers were the main occupation,accounting for 93.85%.The proportion of SFTS cases in Shangcheng and Guangshan County in mountainous and hilly areas accounted for 51.31% of the total cases.96.16% had a history of outdoor activities or field work before onset,25.91% had a clear tick bite history,and 24.29% had onset in May.Clinical symptoms include fever,fatigue,poor appetite,nausea,systemic soreness and inguinal lymph node enlargement and tenderness.Blood routine showed decreased white blood cell count and thrombocytopenia.Proteinuria,hematuria,prolongation of coagulation time and change of biochemical indexes were the main factors. Conclusion SFTS is a highly fatal viral infectious disease.The patients have obvious epidemic history and typical clinical features.
