Abstract

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a disease caused by dengue virus spread by mosquito vectors. Supporting examinations to determine the course of DHF include platelet counts, hematocrit values, and leukocyte counts. Length of hospitalization is the number of days when the patient receives treatment in the hospital, calculated when recorded as an inpatient until discharge from the hospital. This type of research is an analytic observational study with a cross sectional research design. Cases of pediatric DHF at Bina Sehat Hospital Jember for the period 2020-2022 totaled at 296 patients. Data were obtained using medical records. Of the 296 cases of pediatric DHF, samples were then taken by purposive sampling according to the researcher's criteria until 44 samples were obtained. The data were then analyzed using Rank Spearman. Data analysis showed that there was a strong negative correlation between platelet count and length of hospitalization (r = -0.562; p = 0.000), a moderate positive correlation between hematocrit and length of hospitalization ( r = 0.495; p = 0.001), and a moderate negative correlation between leukocyte count and length of hospitalization ( r = -0.415; p = 0.005).
