<![CDATA[[The Correlation Between Leukopenia and The Severity of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever in Paediatric Patients of RSUD Wangaya Denpasar from January 2021-August 2021] Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is one of the most concerning diseases to look out for each year especially on paediatric patients because pediatric patients are more susceptible to severe dengue infection. This is presumably because the microvasculature in children is more prone to plasma leakage. To measure the severity of DHF, a classification by World Health Organization (WHO) in 2011 is used mainly as the standards. This study aims to determine the relationship between leukopenia and the severity of dengue fever in children treated at Wangaya Regional Hospital, Denpasar.
