Abstract

Purpose of review: This study compares the survival and clinical profile of hospitalized adults with COVID-19 in two clinics in the city of Medellín, Colombia, with a prospective study with 198 patients in clinic A and 201 in clinic B. Comparisons were made with chi-square and Mann-Whitney U, factors associated with survival were identified with a Cox regression.

Recent findings: The proportion of deaths was 7.1% in clinic A with a mean survival of 51.9 days (95% CI = 45-59); in clinic B 13.9% of patients died with mean survival of 37.8 days (95% CI = 32-43). The most prevalent comorbidities were hypertension (41.6%), diabetes (23.8%), obesity (15.0%), hypothyroidism (13.0%), dyslipidemia (11.0%), and chronic lung disease (10.8%) with similar proportions in both clinics. There were also differences by the clinic in the most prevalent complications: bacterial pneumonia (18.8%), acute renal failure (14.3%), and encephalopathy (9.5%). There were no differences in the days of hospitalization, mechanical ventilation (clinic A 23.7% and clinic B 29.4%) and admission to the ICU (25.3% in A and 32.3% in B).

Summary: We evidence the heterogeneity of the survival and the clinical profile of the patients who are cared for by two institutions of the same city. These findings demonstrate the need to conduct unique studies for each institution, which poses a significant challenge for hospital epidemiology programs due to the impossibility of extrapolating evidence from other healthcare institutions and the need to implement personalized medicine programs given the clinical diversity of patients hospitalized for COVID-19.

哥伦比亚麦德林两个诊所住院的新冠肺炎成年人的生存率和临床特征比较
综述目的:本研究比较了哥伦比亚麦德林市两家诊所的COVID-19住院成人患者的存活率和临床概况,其中A诊所收治了198名患者,B诊所收治了201名患者,并进行了前瞻性研究:A诊所的死亡比例为7.1%,平均生存期为51.9天(95% CI = 45-59);B诊所的死亡比例为13.9%,平均生存期为37.8天(95% CI = 32-43)。最常见的合并症是高血压(41.6%)、糖尿病(23.8%)、肥胖(15.0%)、甲状腺功能减退(13.0%)、血脂异常(11.0%)和慢性肺病(10.8%),两家诊所的比例相似。各诊所在最常见并发症方面也存在差异:细菌性肺炎(18.8%)、急性肾功能衰竭(14.3%)和脑病(9.5%)。住院天数、机械通气(A 诊所为 23.7%,B 诊所为 29.4%)和入住重症监护室(A 诊所为 25.3%,B 诊所为 32.3%)方面没有差异。这些研究结果表明,有必要对每个机构进行独特的研究,这对医院流行病学项目提出了重大挑战,因为无法从其他医疗机构推断证据,而且鉴于 COVID-19 住院患者的临床多样性,有必要实施个性化医疗项目。

期刊介绍: Current Clinical Microbiology Reports commissions expert reviews from leading scientists at the forefront of research in microbiology. The journal covers this broad field by dividing it into four key main areas of study: virology, bacteriology, parasitology, and mycology. Within each of the four sections, experts from around the world address important aspects of clinical microbiology such as immunology, diagnostics, therapeutics, antibiotics and antibiotic resistance, and vaccines. Some of the world’s foremost authorities in the field of microbiology serve as section editors and editorial board members. Section editors select topics for which leading researchers are invited to contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, which are highlighted in annotated reference lists. These timely reviews of the literature examine the latest scientific discoveries and controversies as they emerge and are indispensable to both researchers and clinicians. The editorial board, composed of more than 20 internationally diverse members, reviews the annual table of contents, ensures that topics address all aspects of emerging research, and where applicable suggests topics of critical importance to various countries/regions.
