COVID-19 has a high risk of mortality, especially in patients with comorbid diseases such as cardiac disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, and hypertension. The National Early Warning Score (NEWS) is a tool that helps in identifying changes in patient conditions that require intensive treatment.
Analyzing NEWS-2 to identify the risk of death in COVID-19 patients.
This research was conducted from June to July 2020 by using quota sampling. The number of participants in this study was 112 participants (case group = 56 participants and control group = 56 participants). Participants were assessed for NEWS-2 and evaluated for their treatment outcomes. The analysis used in this study was the Chi-squared test and logistic regression with p < 0.05.
45 participants died of having NEWS-2 score >5, and as many as 50 participants showed an improvement in their condition by having NEWS-2 score 5 (OR = 34.091; < 0.001). The accuracy of NEWS-2's assessment of mortality of COVID-19 patients had a sensitivity of 80.4% and a specificity of 89.3%. There were several comorbid diseases that had a significant relationship on mortality of COVID-19 patients such as cardiac disease ( = 5.907; 1.107-31.527 95% CI; = 0.038), T2DM ( = 3.143; 1.269-7.783 95% CI; = 0.013), CKD ( = 3.851; 1.195-12.416 95% CI; = 0.024), and hypertension ( = 2.820; 1.075-7.399 95% CI; = 0.035).
The NEWS-2 can be used to identify the risk of death of COVID-19 patients.
新型冠状病毒肺炎(COVID-19)具有较高的死亡风险,尤其是在患有心脏病、2型糖尿病、慢性肾脏病和高血压等合并症的患者中。国家早期预警评分(NEWS)是一种有助于识别需要强化治疗的患者病情变化的工具。
分析NEWS-2以确定COVID-19患者的死亡风险。
本研究于2020年6月至7月采用配额抽样法进行。本研究的参与者有112名(病例组=56名参与者,对照组=56名参与者)。对参与者进行NEWS-2评估,并对其治疗结果进行评估。本研究采用的分析方法是卡方检验和p<0.05的逻辑回归。
45名NEWS-2评分>5的参与者死亡,50名NEWS-2评分为5的参与者病情有所改善(比值比=34.091;<0.001)。NEWS-2对COVID-19患者死亡率评估的准确性具有80.4%的敏感性和89.3%的特异性。有几种合并症与COVID-19患者的死亡率有显著关系,如心脏病(比值比=5.907;95%置信区间为1.107-31.527;p=0.038)、2型糖尿病(比值比=3.143;9s%置信区间为1.269-7.783;p=0.013)、慢性肾脏病(比值比=3.851;95%置信区间为1.195-12.416;p=0.024)和高血压(比值比=2.820;95%置信区间为1.075-7.399;p=0.035)。
NEWS-2可用于识别COVID-19患者的死亡风险。
