Background: Dengue a vector borne disease considered hazard to public health. Diagnosis is by dengue specic antigen and antibody detection. Decrease in platelet count consider as warning sign in dengue positive cases. Hence this study was done to correlate various dengue parameter and platelet count. Material and Methods: A Retrospective analytical study conducted from period of September 2022- September 2023.A total of 1670 serum samples tested for dengue using ICTkit , 82 samples were tested positive. Platelet count recorded for all the cases. Results: 1670 serum sample tested for dengue, 82 sample tested positive for dengue antigen or antibody by ICT based test. Thrombocytopenia (platelet count < 100,000/ml) observed in 20 cases. Association of thrombocytopenia in dengue positive cases was more signicant as compared to dengue negative cases. Conclusion: A necessary to provide association of thrombocytopenia and various dengue markers to physician in management of dengue infection, which further help in reducing complications as thrombocytopenia association in dengue case was signicant as compared to other dengue negative cases.
