Abstract

Background: Dengue fever hemorrhagic (DHF) is a disease caused by dengue virus (DENV) infection belonging to the genus Flavivirus and family Flaviviridae, with the main vector being the Aedes aegypti mosquito found in urban areas and the Aedes albopictus more commonly in rural areas. Hematocrit and platelet counts are laboratory parameters needed to monitor the progress of DHF. In DHF cases, there is a decrease in platelets or thrombocytopenia caused by platelet dysfunction and an increase in hematocrit or hemoconcentration caused by plasma permeation. Thrombocytopenia is generally found between the third and eighth days of illness, which precedes an increase in hematocrit. The mild increase in hematocrit in DHF patients is generally due to dehydration.

Objective: To determine whether there is a relationship between hematocrit value and platelet count to a clinical degree in DHF incidence.

Methods: This type of research uses an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional design.

Results: In the analysis, there is a significant relationship between hematocrit value with degrees I and II with a value of p = 0.000, and there is a relationship between platelet count with degrees I and II with a value of p = 0.000.

Conclusion: There is a relationship between hematocrit value and platelet count with degrees I and II in DHF patients.
