ABSTRACT

Introduction:

The Coronavirus disease is a systemic infection associated with changes in haematological parameters, which have asignificant role in early risk stratification and prognostication in theaffected patients.Aims &

Objectives:

To study the haematological parameters Hemoglobin(Hb), Mean Corpuscular Volume(MCV),Red celldistribution width(RDW),total leukocyte count(TLC), NeutrophilLymphocyte ratio (NLR), Absolute eosinophil count(AEC), Absolutelymphocyte count(ALC) and platelet count(PC)] in patients ofCOVID-19 s wave, at our tertiary care institute.Materials &

Methods:

The study was conducted on 214 COVID-19patients admitted to our institute from April 2021 to June 2021.Data was collected from Central laboratory records in Microsoft exceland analysed using student SPSS version 26.0.

Result:

The mean age of the patients was 53.46 ± 13.09 years with amale to female ratio of 1.91. Anemia was observed in 143 patients(66.82%).Normal MCV was observed in 128 (59.81%) and RDW wasincreased in 159(74.29%) while TLC was normal in 109(50.93%)followed by leukocytosis in 99 (46.26%) and leukopenia in 6(2.8%)patients. NLR was raised in 207 (96.72%) patients. Eosinopenia in205(95.79%), lymphopenia in 156(72.89%) while normal PC wasobserved in 140(65.42%), decreased in 69 (32.24%) and increased in5(2.42%) patients.

Conclusions:

Anaemia, increased RDW, increased NLR, lymphopenia and eosinopenia were associated with COVID 19 disease.
