Abstract
AIM
This study aimed to identify the predictors of mortality and ICU requirements in hospitalized COVID-19 Patients with Diabetes.
DESIGN
Cross-sectional study.
METHODS
It was a retrospective study of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 infection from October 2020-February 2021 in four hospitals in Sylhet, Bangladesh. Logistic regression analysis was applied to explore the predictors of ICU requirement and in-hospital mortality.
RESULTS
In the whole cohort (n = 500), 11% of patients died and 24% of patients required intensive care unit (ICU) support. Non-survivors had significantly higher prevalence of lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia and leukocytosis. Significant predictors of in-hospital mortality were older age, neutrophil count, platelet count and admission peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2). Older age, ischemic heart disease, WBC count, D-dimer and admission SpO2 were identified as significant predictors for ICU requirement.
