Methods: After obtaining the necessary permissions, this retrospective descriptive study evaluated a total of 23,239 patients who had PCR tests in a hospital serving in XXX province and received inpatient or outpatient treatment. The SPSS 22.0 package program was used for descriptive and inferential analyses of the electronically collected data. Results: 50.8% of the cases were female, 49.2% were male, and the mean age was 44.05±16.47 years. A strong correlation was found between gender and receiving intensive care services, the need for intubation, and mortality rates. Intensive care, intubation, and mortality rates of men were significantly higher than women (p KW - COVİD-19 KW - Coronavirus KW - Turkey. N2 - Amaç: COVİD-19 hastalığına bağlı olarak ortaya çıkan entübasyon ihtiyacı, yoğun bakıma yatış ve ölüm oranlarının yaş ve cinsiyet faktörleri ile ilişkisinin incelenmesidir. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı tipteki araştırmada, gerekli izinler alındıktan sonra XXX ilinde hizmet veren bir hastanede PCR testi yaptırmış, hastanede yatan ya da tedavisi ayaktan planlanıp hastane dışı takip edilen 23.239 olgunun retrospektif incelemesi yapılmıştır. Veriler, elektronik ortamda toplanmış olup, tanımlayıcı ve çıkarımsal analizler için SPSS 22.0 paket programı kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Olguların %50,8’i kadın, %49,2’si erkek ve genel yaş ortalaması 44,05±16,47 olarak tespit edilmiştir. Cinsiyet ile yoğun bakım hizmeti alma, entübasyon gereksinimi ve ölüm oranları arasında güçlü ilişki bulunmuştur. Erkeklerin yoğun bakım hizmeti alma, entübasyon ve ölüm oranları kadınlara göre anlamlı derecede daha yüksektir (p CR - Abate, B. B., Kassie, A. M., Kassaw, M. W., Aragie, T. G., &Masresha, S. A.
