it's better admitted in hospital as rehydration to prevent dengue shock syndrome and daily CBC should be done

Considering her platelet count and her comorbidities, it would be best if you admit your mother to a hospital to prevent any serious complications.

wait is she having from any where ? like gum
it's better to admit her considering her age and co morbids
If she is not
Bleeding from anywhere
No pain in abdomen
Not breathless
Can take fluids and not vomiting
Then keep her at home and repeat cbc and LFT
IF POSSIBLE GET ULTRASOUND FOR ANY FLUID LEAK IN HER ANDOMEN OR LUNG BASES
Low count of platelets is part of disease and they will come normal in few days . Patient with heart disease and her age I would prefer to keep her at home so she should not get other infections from hospital. BUT do give her 2 litres of liquids ( ORS , water , milk ,juices)
