Abstract
This dataset includes data from febrile patients recruited for a large hospital-based study in Sri Lanka from 2016 to 2019. The variables include primary socio-demographic data, exposure data, clinical data, biochemical and investigation data. Some of these data are available as serial data from admission to discharge daily. Microscopic agglutination test, quantitative PCR of whole blood, urine and serum and culture isolation was performed to diagnose the patients with leptospirosis.
