ABSTRACT

Dengue mortality remains high despite monitoring against warning signs (WS). The associations of WS at febrile phase (FP) and hemorrhage at defervescence with the levels and kinetics of ROTEM, platelet count, cortisol, and ferritin were analyzed. Patients with confirmed dengue serology and WS in two centers were screened (n = 275) and 62 eligible patients were recruited prospectively over 9 months. "Vomiting" was the commonest WS (62.9%), with shortened clotting time (CT) INTEM (p = 0.01). "Hematocrit increase" showed significant prolonged CT INTEM, EXTEM, and FIBTEM (p < 0.05). "Platelet decrease" showed reduced platelet function and reduced clot amplitude at 10 min (A10) and maximum clot firmness (MCF) in INTEM and EXTEM (p < 0.001). The kinetics were reduced in platelet count, CT EXTEM, and cortisol (p < 0.05) but increased in CT INTEM (p = 0.03). At FP, "vomiting", "hematocrit increase", and "platelet decrease" demonstrated impaired CT, clot strengths A10/MCF and platelet functions. Majority (60/62, 96.7%) had non-severe outcomes, consistent with increase in cortisol kinetics. In conclusion, "vomiting", "hematocrit increase" and "platelet decrease" at FP correlated with ROTEM. No conclusion could be made further regarding ferritin and cortisol. Larger study is required to study "hematocrit increase" with ROTEM as a potential marker for hemorrhage.
