OBJECTIVE: To explore the association between observed complications in patients diagnosed with dengue fever and patients' demographic and clinical characteristics. METHODS: This cross-sectional analysis of data collected from prospective study conducted in a private hospital in Peshawar, Pakistan and comprised data of dengue patients admitted from June 2018 to December 2019. Laboratory parameters and clinical outcomes were studied. STATA 16 was used for data management and analysis. RESULTS: Out of 200 diagnosed patients of Dengue fever, 135 (67.5%) were males and 65 (32.5%) were females. The median age of diagnosis was 36 years and 67.5% were males. Only 6 (3.0%) patients were diagnosed with severe dengue disease. Forty-two (29.0%) patients experienced one or more complication(s). Most common complications observed were coagulopathy (n=16; 8%), dengue shock syndrome (n=15; 7.5%) and sepsis with infection (n=6; 3%). Median (interquartile range-IQR) of platelet count (x10^12/l) was 72.9 (41.1-129.9) and 144.0 (100.4-205.0) in patients with and without complications respectively (p<0.001). Platelet transfusion was done in 27 (13.5%) and folic acid supplementation was given to 171 (85.5%) patients. Median (IQR) duration of hospital stay was 4 (3–6) and 3(2–4) days in patient with and without complications (<0.001). Overall mortality rate was 2.0% (n=4/200). There was a statistical difference in proportion of platelet transfusion, duration of hospital stay (number of day) and survival between those who had complications and those who didn't (p=<0.001). CONCLUSION: Platelet transfusion and duration of hospital stay in the hospital were significantly associated with higher risk of dengue complications.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the effects of short inter delivery interval (IDI) on mode of delivery in patients with immediate previous one caesarean section (C-Section). METHODS: This is a retrospective chart review of 120 patients treated at Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar, Pakistan from December 2017 to December 2019. Patients of previous one C-Section and with gestational age of >37 weeks were included in this study. Outcome variables were mode of delivery whether operative or vaginal delivery, maternal and fetal complications such as scar dehiscence or scar rupture and fetal distress. RESULTS: Mean age of the patients was 28.9±2 years. IDI was <18 months in 35/120 (29.2%) cases, 18-24 months in 54/120(45%) cases and >24 months in 31/120 (25.8%) cases. Out of 120, 102 (85%) patients underwent trial of labour after C-section (TOLAC). TOLAC was successful in 64 (62.7%) cases. Patient who underwent TOLAC with IDI of <18 months, 5/21 (23.8%) patients delivered vaginally and 16/21 (76.2%) patients had emergency C-Section while those with 18-24 months IDI, 38/51 (74.5%) patients delivered and 13/51 (25.4 %) patients had emergency C-Section. Main indications for emergency C-Section were scar tenderness and maternal tachycardia (n=16; 42.10%) and fetal distress (n=11, 28.9%). There were two cases of interauterine deaths. Uterine scar dehiscence was observed in 14.28% and 2.4% in short and normal IDI respectively. CONCLUSION: Patients with short IDI had high C-section and uterine scar dehiscence rate. IDI of >18 months is recommended to avoid the maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality.
