Results: Among 1222 patients is dengue suspected and diagnosed as 390dengue positive patients. Which is dengue Ns1 383 (95.2%), IgM 18 (4.3%) and IgG 2 (0.5%). And according to male and female as well as 294 (75.4%) & 96 (24.6%). Then age group wise more predominant 11–20 years 30.8%. Most predominant thrombocytopenia is according to platelet count less than 50000 / microliter (25.6%) were patients. Among leukocytopenia is 48.7% is dengue fever patients. Conclusions: Present study concludes that clinical surveillance about dengue haemorrhagic fever is important as timely recognition can influence outcome and may prevent any compilations.
