Severe (hemorrhagic) dengue includes shock, respiratory distress and involvement of target organs. Objectives: To identify laboratory findings in severe dengue patients. Design: Retrospective cross-sectional study. Setting: Central Laboratory and Epidemiology Department, Santa Rosa Hospital, Puerto Maldonado, Madre de Dios, Peru.
