SARS-CoV2 pneumonia patients admitted to the ICU: Analysis according to clinical and biological parameters and the extent of lung parenchymal lesions on chest CT scan, a monocentric observational study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

CT-scan and inflammatory and coagulation biomarkers could help in prognostication of COVID-19 in patients on ICU admission.

Objective

The objectives of this study were to measure the prognostic value of the extent of lung parenchymal lesions on computed tomography (CT) and of several coagulation and inflammatory biomarkers, and to explore the characteristics of the patients depending on the extent of lung parenchymal lesions.

Design

Retrospective monocentric observational study achieved on a dataset collected prospectively.

Setting

Medical ICU of the university hospital of Clermont-Ferrand, France.

Patients

All consecutive adult patients aged ≥18 years admitted between 20 March, 2020 and 31 August, 2021 for COVID-19 pneumonia.
