A Study On Biochemical And Haematological Parameters In Acute Respiratory Infection Patients

Background:Acute respiratory infections (ARI) caused by viruses or bacteria, with an evolution of less than 15 days, and which manifest with symptoms such as cough, nasal congestion and obstruction, sore throat, dysphonia or respiratory distress. The measurement of biochemical parameters provides information about the functional status of major organs. Enzymes are widely used in toxicological studies as markers of detection and evaluation of cell damage. Haematological parameters, including red and white blood cell counts and haemoglobin concentration, are widely used clinical indicators of health and disease. The primary objective of the study is to analyze the Biochemical& Hematological parameters among the acute respiratory infection patients in ACS Medical College and Hospitals. Method: The Experimental study occurred at the Department of Allied Health Science (AHS) in a private medical college and hospital in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. The study included adolescent people (age >18) with reported acute respiratory infection. Result: In this study symptomatic patients values are like CBC, AST, and ALT are significantly high and asymptomatic patient’s values are insignificant. Conclusion: We observed that most of the symptomatic patients of Acute respiratory infection has abnormal CBC (HB, Platelet), LFT (AST, ALT) levels. And also, we test the asymptomatic patients of acute respiratory infection, has normal level of CBC & LFT
