AB  - Aim: Current study sought to examine relationship of frontal QRS-T angle with mortality and its abilityto predict mortality.Material and Methods: This retrospective study was made in an education hospital with SARS-CoV 2infected patients admitted to emergency service between 01/01/2021 and 07/01/2021. Patients weregrouped as survivor and died according to 30-day all-cause mortality data. Groups were matched infootings of comorbidities, demographics, laboratory parameters and ECG findings. Receiver operatingcharacteristic examination was used for evaluation of the ability of frontal QRS-T angle to predict shorttermmortality.Results: The frontal QRS-T angle was greater in died group compared to the survivors (53 (25.5-115.5) vs 28 (13-52) p

N2  - Amaç: Çalışmada frontal QRS-T açısının mortalite ile ilişkisi ve mortaliteyi tahmin etme yeteneğiaraştırıldı.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu retrospektif çalışma, bir eğitim hastanesinde 01/01/2021 ile 07/01/2021tarihleri arasında acil servise başvuran SARS-CoV 2 enfekte hastaları ile yapılmıştır. Hastalar hayatta measkalanolarak gruplandırıldı ve 30 günlük tüm nedenlere bağlı ölüm verilerine göre öldü. Gruplar, komorbiditeler, demografik özellikler,laboratuvar parametreleri ve EKG bulguları temelinde eşleştirildi. Frontal QRS-T açısının kısa dönem mortaliteyi tahmin etme yeteneğinindeğerlendirilmesinde alıcı işletim karakteristik incelemesi kullanıldı.Bulgular: Frontal QRS-T açısı ölen grupta yaşayanlara göre daha büyüktü (53 (25,5-115,5) ve 28 (13-52) p < 0,001). Alıcı işletim karakteristikanalizine göre frontal QRS- için kesme değeri ve eğri altında kalan alan sırasıyla 41,5 (duyarlılık: %62,2, özgüllük: %64,7) ve 0,659 (%95güven aralığı: 0,606-0,713) olarak belirlendi. Otuz günlük mortalite için frontal QRS-T açısı (≥41,5) olasılık oranı 3,03 olarak belirlendi (%95güven aralığı: 2,08-4,42).Sonuç: Frontal QRS-T açısı, acil serviste SARS-CoV 2 enfeksiyonu olan hastalarda kısa dönem mortalite için yüksek özgüllüğe sahip birbelirleyicidir.
