Background: In the western region of the state of West Bengal, it is difficult to diagnose enteric fever using blood cultures or even the Widal test. The best method to make a diagnosis and start treatment is with a high index of suspicion. In this setting, research into potential haematological alterations associated with enteric fever may offer the physician a critical clue for the early initiation of treatment and prevent further complications. Aims: The goal of this study was to examine the haematological profile of children with Widal-positive enteric fever. Method: A hospital-based cross-sectional study was carried out at Bankura Sammilani Medical College and Hospital (BSMCH) from March 1, 2020, to August 31, 2021. The study population consisted of 120 children, aged 1 to 12 years, who were admitted to the children's ward with Widal positive enteric fever. A pre-designed questionnaire was used to collect the relevant information. The data was entered into a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and analyzed with Epi Info (version 3.5.1) Software.
