    Abstract

    The concept of fever appears frequently throughout human literature, music, and art, and it has even been studied scientifically. It is not unexpected to discover precise descriptions of febrile patients in early recorded history because fever is such a prevalent symptom of sickness. Material and Methods: Patients admitted to Department of General Medicine, Government Medical College, Ongole, Andhra Pradesh, India, will participate in this study. One hundred individuals with fever and low platelet counts will be prospectively collected. The participant ages ranged from 18 to 79, however this was not a restriction on the study. Fifty-eight men and forty-two women made up the 100 people diagnosed with fever and thrombocytopenia. Results: Only 14 people didn't make it, while 86 made full recoveries. Thirty of the 86 patients who made a full recovery were followed up on, and their platelet counts were within normal range once they were discharged. Twelve people died from septicemia and multi-organ failure syndrome, and two died from dengue fever, for a total of fourteen deaths. Conclusion: Thrombocytopenia, which often caused bleeding symptoms, shaped these febrile diseases. Spontaneous bleeding patients should be evaluated for disseminated intravascular coagulation. Malaria patients do not need platelet transfusions since their platelet counts recover quickly following treatment
