The objetive was to determine if the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratios are markers of inflammation useful in predicting the diagnosis of pneumonia in patients younger than five years old. MATERIAL AND METHOD: An observational, analytical study of diagnostic test was conducted during the period from January 1 st , 2018 to December 31 , 2019 in Bethlehem Hospital of Trujillo; we evaluated 110 diagnosed with pneumonia, from which 82 had compatible findings in the chest radiography and 28 without compatible findings. RESULTS: The age in the groups with and without compatible findings with pneumonia on the chest radiography were 35.44 ± 18.70 and 34.60 ± 19.73 months respectively (p>0.05); the proportion of males in each group 53.7% and 53.6% respectively (p>0.05) and their urban procedence of 29.2% and 25% for each group; and rural procedence of 70.8% and 75% for each group. The leukocyte, absolute neutrophil and lymphocyte count values, the NLR and PLR in the groups with and without compatible findings with pneumonia on the chest radiography were the leukocytes 13.43 ± 5.10 and 10.14 ± 2.53 (p<0.001); neutrophils 10.62 ± 4.81 and 6.72 ± 2.74 (p<0.001); platelets 309.76 ± 74.41 and 273.26 ± 76.13, lymphocyte 2.05 ± 0.83 and 2.74 ± 0.75 (p<0.001); NLR 6.07 ± 3.77 and 2.59 ± 1.11 (p<0.001) and PLR 174.10 ± 76.37 and 103 ± 29,69 (p<0.001) respectively. Taking as a cut-off point the NLR value CONCLUSIONS: We suggest that NLR and PLR are useful inflammatory markers to predict pneumonia in patients younger than five years old and can be used as a complement diagnostic tool. st
