This is a multicenter, non-interventional, retrospective study using data captured in the EHRs (Electronic Health Records) of the participating hospital sites to determine factors that predict disease prognosis and outcomes in COVID-19 patients, specifically: Hospitalization/Off-site monitoring, transfer to ICU and/or need for medical mechanical ventilation (both invasive and non- invasive), length of ICU stay, and outcome (cure/ hospital discharge, in-hospital death)
Data captured in the EHRs will be collected from all available departments, including
inpatient hospital, outpatient hospital, emergency room, etc. for virtually all types of
provided services in each participating site. The study period will be from January 1, 2020
to the most recent data available.
- Primary objective To determine factors that predict disease prognosis and outcomes in
COVID-19 patients, specifically: Hospitalization/Off-site monitoring, transfer to ICU
and/or need for medical mechanical ventilation (both invasive and non- invasive), length
of ICU stay, and outcome (cure/ hospital discharge, in-hospital death)
- Secondary objectives
- To describe the demographic and clinical characteristics of COVID-19 patients
- To describe the patient management (treatment and procedures) in the target
population
- To describe the outcomes of COVID-19 (discharge, hospitalization, transfer to ICU/
mechanical medical ventilation, in-hospital death) in relation to patients'
clinical and demographic characteristics, and treatment received
- To determine whether the factors that predict COVID-19 prognosis and outcome also
apply to other types of pneumonia.
- Exploratory objectives One of the goals of this study is to configure the Big Data
system to unravel any hidden variable/s (and their associations) that may offer novel
clinical insights into COVID-19 management.
Inclusion Criteria:
- All patients with suspected COVID-19 infection, as captured in the patients' EHRs of
the participating sites.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Not suspected COVID-10 infection
