Abstract

Introduction: Dengue fever is the most common cause of arboviral disease. Dengue fever presents with confusing clinical profile and dengue is diagnosed by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Hematological parameters like platelet count, hematocrit, leucocyte count and peripheral smear findings will aid in the diagnosis of dengue fever whereas malaria which is responsible for Leukemia, anemia and thrombocytopenia. Method: Total number of cases was 138. Out of which 121 Dengue IgM positive cases and for Malaria 107 rapid card test positive and smear positive cases were selected. period of 1 year. Jan 2020 to Sep 2021. Result: dengue incidence is 66.10% up to 30yrs of age group, where as in Malaria incidence is 60.90%. Dengue is more common in females(64.50)% than Males(35.50%) as compared to malaria. Reduction in RBC count less than 4 million is more common in malaria (48.76) than dengue (48.76%). anemia is more common in malaria(74.76%) compared to dengue(46.23%). Conclusion: Raised hematocrit, thrombocytopenia, leucopenia, and atypical lymphocytes in the peripheral smear will aid in the early diagnosis of dengue infection. Hematological changes and their diagnostic values in malaria infected patients found out that hemoglobin levels, white blood cell counts, and platelet counts were significantly reduced.
