AI Article Synopsis
- - The study investigated how kidney function at admission affects the length of hospital stay for triple-vaccinated COVID-19 patients during the omicron variant surge in Larissa, Greece.
- - Researchers used regression analysis on data from 51 patients and found that higher admission serum creatinine levels were linked to longer hospital stays.
- - The study suggests that admission serum creatinine could serve as a valuable predictor for hospital length of stay among COVID-19 patients, warranting further research both in Greece and worldwide.
Article Abstract
Background: This study assessed the association between admission kidney function and the duration of hospitalization in triple-vaccinated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) inpatients during the omicron surge in Larissa, central Greece.
Methods: Regression analysis was used to estimate the effect of kidney function biomarkers on hospital length of stay (LoS) within a dataset from a cohort of 51 subjects.
Results: Sex- and age-adjusted admission serum creatinine was associated with hospital LoS (p=0.034).
Conclusions: Serum creatinine concentration on admission should be further evaluated as a possible clinical predictor of hospital LoS among triple-vaccinated COVID-19 inpatients both at the country and global level.
