A comprehensive history taking, physical examination, and lab investigations were carried out and data were collected in pre-designed proforma.
Results: According to complications, in dengue positive cases, bleeding was the most common complication seen in 48.00% cases while shock, myocarditis, and convulsion were present in 31.00%, 2.00% and 1.00% of cases respectively.
