Neonatal Dengue with Clinical Sepsis: A Case Report

On physical examination, the baby was found to be less active, crying enough, suction reflex (+), pulse 135x/minute, breathing: 44 x/minute, temperature: 38.8 (axillary), SpO2: 93%, jaundice (+), lower extremities: warm acral (+), left petechiae (+), CRT
