Abstract |
In COVID-19 existing systemic diseases aggravates the complications as well as hospitalization rates and outcomes. Therefore, it is of interest to find out how common systemic diseases are among COVID-19 patients admitted to a Jumbo COVID care facility in Mumbai. Hence, the study included 10,000 patients with confirmed COVID-19, with data from hospital records, including patient demographics and systemic diseases. Hypertension (34.8%) and diabetes (31.2%) were the most common. Identifying and managing co-morbid conditions early is important to improve outcomes and make better use of healthcare resources during pandemics.
