This study aimed to describe the socio-demographic and clinical characteristics of dengue inpatients at a provincial hospital, and to identify factors associated with severe dengue. This is a retrospective study involving 402 dengue patients admitted to the Savannakhet Provincial Hospital, Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Lao PDR), between January 2018 and April 2019. Socio-demographic factors, clinical signs and laboratory data on admission, final diagnosis, use of health care services before admission, admission date, and hospitalization period were collected from patient records. The number of dengue inpatients was higher in the rainy season than in the dry season. Of the 402 patients, 205 patients (51.0%) were finally diagnosed with severe dengue. Children aged <15 years had more symptoms, higher proportion of severe dengue (69.8% vs. 35.9%), and longer hospitalization (3.5 days vs. 3.0 days) than adults aged ≥15 years. In multivariable analyses, factors associated with severe dengue were nausea on admission (adjusted odds ratio=3.57, 95% CI=1.05–12.09, P=0.04) in children and persistent vomiting on admission (adjusted odds ratio=3.82, 95% CI=1.23–11.92, P=0.02) in adults. In adults, the creatinine level on admission was significantly higher in patients with a final diagnosis of severe dengue compared to the others. The proportion of severe dengue in our study was higher than that in other countries. Nausea and persistent vomiting on admission were suggested to be predictive factors for severe dengue. To reduce the incidence of severe dengue in Lao PDR, improvements in access to health care, referral system, and training of health care workers are needed.
