Clinical Characteristics, Treatment Outcomes and Experiences Gained in Caring COVID-19 Cases in a Private Hospital in Thailand
OBJECTIVES: To describe clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes and to document adaptation of medical services of COVID-19 cases receiving care at Bangkok Hospital Headquarters (BHQ) from January to May 2020. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Clinical and laboratory data of confirmed COVID-19 cases were collected using the case record form designed by the clinical team providing care to suspected and confirmed COVID-19 cases. Data were analyzed for clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes. In parallel, the Infection Control Nurse (ICN) team gathered and summarized data on hospital responses, including statistics of hospital staff exposed to COVID-19 cases and their clinical symptoms and test results. RESULT: From January to May 2020, Bangkok Hospital Headquarters provided COVID-19 screening test using RT-PCR to 2,362 patients, of which 40 (1.69%, with a confirmed case who contracted COVID-19 outside of hospital. CONCLUSION: Although we were only a small part of the national response, what we learned was meaningful. Clinical and management teams are confident that if another wave of COVID-19 occurs, the hospital will be able to respond immediately using the existing knowledge and experience that was gained.
