COVID-19 Disease Duration and GIT Manifestations. A New Disease Severity Classification. An Egyptian Experience

19. september 2020 oppdatert av: Mona Hegazy, Cairo University

Corona Virus (COVID-19) Disease Duration and Gastrointestinal Tract (GIT) Manifestations; Can be New Disease Severity Classification. A Pilot Egyptian Single National Center Experience

The present study conducted to correlate symptoms not only constitutional and respiratory, but GIT as a principle presentation, with laboratory markers and COVID-19 severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-COV2) disease outcomes, as the duration of symptoms varies substantially between patients; the investigators undertook this study to determine the optimal time to predict COVID-19 outcomes based on real-time experience.

Detaljert beskrivelse

This observational retrospective cohort single center national study was conducted on patients who tested positive COVID-19 infection by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of nasopharyngeal sample in the period from first June to the med of July 2020. Patients were recruited from Kasr Al-Aini School of medicine, COVID-19 out-patient clinic, Cairo University hospitals.

The diagnosis and classification of severity of COVID-19 infection were made according to the clinical management of COVID-19, released by the World Health Organization (WHO), mild and moderate case were recruited, the treatment protocol used was according to the Egyptian ministry of health treatment recommendations, which met in part the criteria that was later on published by the national institute of health, Mild and moderate cases once diagnosed by PCR received hydroxychloroquine 400 mg twice daily first day and maintained on 200 mg twice daily for 6 days in mild cases and 10 days in moderate cases. Also they received anticoagulants, vitamin c and zinc. In case of secondary bacterial infection, empiric antibiotics are started till result of sputum culture and sensitivity. Steroids were initiated in hypoxic cases that required supplemental oxygen and in cases of persistent symptoms.

Any adult patient (age ≥18 years) suffering from mild or moderate COVID-19 infection was included in this study. While severe cases according to WHO classifications and patients aged less than18 were excluded from the study.

Studiepopulasjon

Patients was recruited from COVID19 out-patient clinic, Cairo University hospitals. Severity Classification made according to the WHO (13) and Egyptian ministry of health treatment recommendations (14) Clinical data was collected including patient demographics (age, gender, weight and height, body mass index, comorbid conditions (e.g.diabetes mellitus, chronic pulmonary disease), vital signs. Clinical symptoms were recorded using yes/no checklist about constitutional symptoms, respiratory symptoms, loss of taste, loss of smell and gastrointestinal symptoms.The patients were followed up daily; by telehealth through phone calls and commercial video chat platforms, till symptoms offset. Laboratory assessment was collected within 24 hours of symptoms onset (complete blood picture, kidney and liver biochemistry, random blood sugar, serum C-reactive protein, D-dimer, ferritin, lipid profile, and lactate dehydrogenase). CT chest was performed and its result was recorded
