INTRODUCTION: In this study, it was aimed to investigate in detail the contribution of hemogram indices such as neutrophil/lymphocyteratio (NLR), red blood cell distribution width (RDW), RPR, MPR, mean platelet volume (MPV), and platelet count (PLT) to the diagnosis of febrile seizure (FS). MATERIALS and METHODS: 91 FS, 116 febrile disease and 100 healthy control cases were included in the study. Significant hemogram indices in favor of FS were determined as a result of double and triple group comparisons with appropriate statistical analyzes, and diagnostic cut-off values, sensitivity and specificity were calculated for FS diagnosis according to receiever operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS: NLR index was significantly higher in the FS group. The median was 2.6 in the FS group, 1.6 and 0.7 in the febrile disease and healthy control groups, respectively (p<0.001). In the ROC curve analysis, the cut-off values, sensitivity and specificities of the NLR index for FS diagnosis were determined. The 1/ RPR index was found to be statistically significantly lower in FS group. It was found to be 20.5 in the FS group, 23.3 and 23.2 in the febrile disease and healthy control groups, respectively (p=0.003). Similar to the NLR, cut-off values, sensitivity and specificities were calculated for FS diagnosis in the ROC curve analysis within the 1/RPR index. CONCLUSIONS: NLR and 1/RPR indexes are cheap and easily accessible hemogram parameters that can contribute to the diagnosis of FS. They can be used simply by practitioners and pediatricians in emergency rooms and out patient clinics
