Résumé
Introduction@#The sociodemographic factors have a substantial impact on COVID 19 and understanding the characteristics and clinical presentation of COVID-19 is essential for diagnosis, management, prevention, and targeting clinical care and allocating resources.@*Objectives@#To determine the socio-clinical profile, hospital outcomes and predictors of mortality of patients with COVID19 in Perpetual Succour Hospital from March to September 2020.@*Study Design@#Retrospective observational study@*Materials and Methods@#The population consisted of 368 COVID 19 admitted patients in a tertiary hospital in Cebu City from March to September 2020. Data collection was done by reviewing the charts of the patients and analyzing for descriptive statistics.@*Results@#The COVID 19 patients were predominantly elderly males, smokers, with hypertension and diabetes. Smoking had a significant association with the mortalities. Cough, fever and dyspnea were the common manifestations. Intubated patients had a high mortality. Age, APACHE II and SOFA score, CRP level showed significant association with mortality. Acute kidney injury was the prevalent complication and respiratory failure was the primary cause of death. Majority of the admitted patients were classified as moderate and were discharged alive.@*Conclusion@#COVID 19 has a high recovery rate but poses a risk for the elderly, smokers and those with comorbidities. The manifestations mimic those of a respiratory infection and clinical parameters would usually be typical. Furthermore, acute kidney injury is common for infected patients, with respiratory failure and the need for intubation leading to increased morbidity and mortality.
