Motivation for the study. To describe the characteristics of patients who died from severe dengue fever during the 2017 El Niño in Piura. Main findings. Mortality from severe dengue was higher in adult women. First contact with healthcare took place mostly in higher level hospitals. Admission to a specialized unit was late for severe dengue cases. Implications. Control of dengue fever involves several aspects, such as, access to health, prevention, water availability, vector control and education; therefore, it is important to strengthen public health policies in this regard. In order to achieve this goal, local and central government sectors must be involved
