Post-Intensive Care Syndrome Among Survivors in a Safety Net Hospital in South Bronx: A Comparison of Patients With and Without Coronavirus Disease 2019.

Comparison of post-intensive care syndrome between critically ill survivors with or without coronavirus disease 2019 (CovP and CovN, respectively) showed that fewer CovP were able to return to work full time at >1 year and none at <1 year after discharge and that the majority of CovP survivors were able to work part time during both evaluation periods compared to CovN.

Role of a Chest X-ray Severity Score in a Multivariable Predictive Model for Mortality in Patients with COVID-19: A Single-Center, Retrospective Study.

Predicting the mortality risk of patients with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) can be valuable in allocating limited medical resources in the setting of outbreaks. This study assessed the role of a chest X-ray (CXR) scoring system in a multivariable model in predicting the mortality of COVID-19 patients by performing a single-center, retrospective, observational study including consecutive patients admitted with a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 and an initial CXR. The CXR severity score was calculated by three radiologists with 12 to 15 years of experience in thoracic imaging, based on the extent of lung involvement and density of lung opacities.
