Tóm tắt
Objectives: To investigate the clinical and paraclinical characteristics of moderate to severe COVID-19 patients at the COVID-19 Research and Treatment Center, Hue Central Hospital. To evaluate certain prognostic factors for mortality in moderate to severe COVID-19 patients.
Methods: Patients aged 18 years or older diagnosed with moderate to severe COVID-19 (according to Decision No. 250 of the Ministry of Health, dated January 28, 2022), at the COVID-19 Research and Treatment Center, Hue Central Hospital, from December 2021 to September 2023. This research employed a prospective approach.
Results: A total of 300 patients were enrolled in this study. The average age was 64,57 ± 18,45 years.
The most common comorbidity was hypertension (50.2%). Patients who have been vaccinated (75.3%). The most common clinical signs and symptoms included cough (72%), shortness of breath (56.9%), and fatigue (87.5%). Abnormal paraclinical findings were WBC > 10.109/L (35.7%), LYM < 1.109/L (52.5%), D-dimer > 1000 ng/mL (52.9%), CRP > 10 mg/L (75.5%), Ferritin > 500 ng/mL (52.7%), LDH > 300 U/L (33.2%), positive cytokine storm (23.3%), and TSS 3-6 points (51.9%). The mortality rate was 18%. There was a significant association between underlying conditions, vaccination, LYM, LDH, D-dimer, Ferritin, chest X-rays, cytokine storm, and mortality prognosis in moderate to severe COVID-19 patients (p < 0.05). Non-vaccination was an independent prognostic factor for mortality in moderate to severe COVID-19
patients (OR 2.741; 95%CI: 1.168-6.431; p < 0.005). LDH > 300 U/L was an independent prognostic factor for mortality in moderate to severe COVID-19 patients (OR 6.696; 95%CI: 2.335-19.199; p < 0.001).
Conclusions: Cough, shortness of breath, and fatigue are common symptoms in moderate to severe COVID-19 patients. LYM < 1 x 109/L, D-dimer > 1000 ng/mL, Ferritin > 500 ng/mL, and CRP > 10 mg/L were mainly found in lab tests. The patient mortality rate was 18%. Non-vaccination and LDH > 300 U/L are independent predictors of mortality in moderate to severe COVID-19 patients.
