Abstract

Dengue is the most serious viral infection in recent years, resulting in major morbititesand mortality. This was a hospital based comparative study done from July – August2019. The purpose of this study was to estimate the hematological parameters and liverenzymes in dengue patients which could help to detect the severity of the disease andintervene early. Participants included 75 cases and 75 healthy controls. Hemoglobin,WBC count, Platelet count along with SGOT and SGPT levels were analysed. Our studyshowed elevated SGOT AND SGPT levels of which SGOT is more elevated .WBC andplatelet count were reduced and showed negative correlation with SGOT and SGPTvalues.Hence thisstudyshowedliver enzymesget affectedbydengue andalsoitsseveritycanbeassessedby knowing hematologicalparameterswhichaidsinearlyinterventionand initiatethetreatment sooner.
