As a final classification was found 77% of Classic Dengue, Dengue with 7.4% of complications, 0.4% of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever and 0.14% deaths, 15% were not classified. Among the laboratory markers found were registered 1,209 cases with IgM positive cases em108 DEN 1, DEN 2 in 14 cases and DEN 3 in 67 cases, Histopathology was cited positive in 4 cases, the hematocrit ranged from 21% to 81%, among the sociodemographic markers the race / ethnicity most marked in this population was white, children over 11 years were most affected, students complete basic education. The more clinical markers reported were fever, headache. myalgia, prostration; among hemorrhagic manifestations: petechiae and epistaxis; as signs of vascular leakage, ascites, pleural and pericardial effusion; warning sign most frequently reported were abdominal pain; the complications of gravity as myocarditis, shock and neurological manifestations have been reported among others. DEN 2 was the responsible for the highest number of severe symptoms. Conclusions: Were identified clinical markers for diagnosis and severity for Dengue in the period studied.
