dc.description.abstractMalaria is a major health problem in India. In cases of fever with thrombocytopenia, malaria should be on top of the differential diagnosis. This was a study of admitted patients in medical wards of Bhaskara Medical Colleges, Hyderabad who were diagnosed with malaria and they were assessed for thrombocytopenia using automated quantitative D3 analyser. The data were analysed using SPSS version 16.0. Viral haemorrhagic fevers can also be presented as fever with high haematocrit and leucopenia along with thrombocytopenia. In our study, the commonest cause of thrombocytopenia in malaria was vivax malaria.en_US
