Evaluation of Patients with Corona Disease in the City Hospital

Öz

Background: Monitoring the values of eosinophils in particular among the blood cell count (CBC) parameters of patients who experienced COVID-19 and then worsened and become ex, highlights the importance of the mortality caused by the disease, and by early diagnosis, the necessary measures can be taken. Methods: Our study is retrospective case control study. The clinical and laboratory data of 1039 patients who received a diagnosis of COVID-19 between March 11th and September 11th, 2020. Results: The study was completed with a total of 1039 patients. Of the participants, 378 (36.4%) were female and 661 (63.6%) were female. The number of people who died from the disease was 172 (16.6%). Of the deceased patients, 63 were female. The mortality rate was higher in male patients, at 63.37%. Severe eosinopenia was found in 77.02% of the deceased patients. The number of eosinophil cells in surviving patients were very weak compared to the others, while the number of monocytes and lymphocytes in deceased patients were correlated. Conclusions: Close monitoring of CBC parameters, particularly eosinophils, can be helpful in the early screening, treatment, and follow up of critically ill COVID-19 patients in terms of mortality
