The aim of the study was to establish the association of thrombocytopenia and epidemiological factors (history of dengue, gender, age group, occupation, place of infection and month of infection) with confirmed cases of dengue in patients treated at the Melvin Jones Health Center, Alto Trujillo, during the period March - August 2023. A non-experimental, descriptive and cross-sectional research design was carried out, collecting information from the epidemiological records of 730 probable dengue patients, of which 452 were confirmed cases. A highly significant association between thrombocytopenia and dengue was determined (p <0.01). Male sex showed slightly higher protection against the virus compared to females (OR 0.7), while being infected increased the risk of thrombocytopenia by more than 100-fold (OR 106.7). It was also found that gender, age group, occupation, place of infection and month had a significant association with the presence of the disease (p < 0.05). Only, history of dengue fever did not show a significant association with this condition (p > 0.05). The frequency of thrombocytopenia and confirmed cases of dengue was 71% and 61.9%, respectively. Finally, it was concluded that thrombocytopenia and some epidemiological factors are associated with dengue and further research is recommended to develop innovative approaches to improve the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of this disease.
