Article Synopsis
- Dengue is a significant viral disease carried by insects that can lead to serious health issues in humans, including high morbidity and mortality rates.
- The disease involves complex processes resulting in low platelet counts (thrombocytopenia) and bleeding, where various factors like platelet activity, blood coagulation components, and immune responses play a role.
- While severe bleeding is infrequent, it's essential to monitor patients for symptoms and manage cases of severe low platelet counts, which may sometimes need platelet transfusions.
