Discussion

Cross-sectional study reveals significant correlation between hematocrit and platelet counts in DHF patients, highlighting diagnostic importance.

Significant negative correlation found between hematocrit and platelet counts in dengue hemorrhagic fever patients.
Results indicate that as hematocrit levels increase, platelet counts decrease, supporting thrombocytopenia in DHF.
Pearson’s correlation test used for analysis, demonstrating statistical significance with r = -0.760, p < 0.001.
Highlights the need for simultaneous monitoring of hematocrit and platelet levels for effective patient management.
