HUBUNGAN PROFIL TROMBOSIT DENGAN DIAGNOSIS DENGUE HEMORRHAGIC FEVER PADA ANAK USIA 5-14 TAHUN DI RSUD KOTA YOGYAKARTA
Abstract
Background: Dengue is a pandemic and endemic disease that often appears in
many parts of the world, especially in tropical and subtropical countries
(Wahyuni & Sabir, 2011). Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) itself is a disease
caused by dengue virus that is transmitted to humans through the bite of Aedes
aegypti and aedes albocaliptus mosquitoes. DHF has become a problem for the
international community in children. Platelet profile is one of the laboratory
parameters needed for the development of dengue infection.
Research Methods: This study is a retrospective analytic with cross sectional
design. The research sample used was all pediatric patients aged 5-14 years with
a diagnosis of dengue hemorrhagic fever at the RSUD in Yogyakarta City who
collected 191 samples. Inclusion criteria are children diagnosed with dengue
haemorrhagic fever, asking for 5-14 years and medical records with platelet
counts.
Research Results: Spearman test results obtained with a value (p = 0.368) and (r
= 0.065), which means that the correlation is not meaningful, with the strength of
a weak correlation.
Conclusion: It was found that there was no significant relationship between
platelet profiles and the diagnosis of dengue hemorrhagic fever in children aged
5-14 years in RSUD Kota Yogyakarta
