Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted to develop an early prognostic tool to identify hospitalized COVID-19 patients at high risk of mortality, emphasizing the importance of accurate patient management.
- Researchers analyzed 375 patients and identified six key clinical factors correlated with mortality: age over 50, multiple underlying diseases, dyspnea, acute confusion, low oxygen saturation, and high oxygen demand.
- The newly created Military Hospital 175 scale (MH175) proved effective in predicting mortality risk with high sensitivity (96.1%) and a good overall discriminative ability (AUC of 0.87), enabling healthcare providers to optimize treatment strategies.
