Get Quick, Accurate Dengue Fever Oriented Blood Test & Platelet Count with Accuhealth Diagnostics

Dengue fever is a viral infection. The bite of an infected female Aedes mosquito transmits the disease. Dengue fever is a flu-like illness. It affects infants, young children and adults. No specific treatment or medication is there for dengue fever Severe dengue is a potentially lethal complication. But early diagnosis and careful clinical management can save lives.

The dengue virus enters the bloodstream when an infected mosquito bites someone. The virus binds to platelets and replicates. This leads to the multiplication of the infectious virus. The infected platelet cells then end to destroy normal platelets. This is a major reason for platelet count drop when someone is infected with dengue fever.

Complete Understanding of Dengue Platelets Level Count

Platelets or thrombocytes are a component of blood. Their primary function is blood clotting to stop bleeding. They also have a role in the body’s defence mechanism. The normalplatelet count in a human body ranges from 1.5 to 4 lakh. In dengue, the platelet count can drastically fall below 1.5 lakh.

Depending on the risk basis platelet count, dengue patients may fall in either category:

Complications of Low Platelet count in Dengue fever

A close check on a patient’s platelet count needs to be kept even after the fever subsides. This is because some patients with dengue fever can go on to develop dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) which is characterized by a platelet count of below 1 lakh.

This is marked by leaky blood capillaries. It can lead to failure of the circulatory system and shock. Further, if DHF is not treated promptly, it can possibly cause death in extremely serious cases.
