ABSTRACT
Abstract

INTRODUCTION:

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a potentially fatal disease, is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). The number of cases has increased rapidly, but information on the clinical characteristics remains limited.

METHODS:

Cohort study. We collected and analyzed epidemiological, demographic, and clinical data of critically and noncritically ill patients and compared the outcomes.

RESULTS:

The mean age of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 was 54 years (standard deviation 16.9; 53.8% men), 29% required ICU admission, and 18.6% died.

CONCLUSIONS:

The main risk factors for ICU admission were age over 60 years, obesity, and preexisting chronic lung diseases.
