Objective: To analyse the accuracy of commonly used risk scores (PSI and CURB‐65) in predicting mortality and need for ICU admission in Covid‐19. Material and methods: Prospective study of patients diagnosed with Covid‐19 pneumonia. Patients were followed until home discharge or death. PSI, CURB‐65, SMART‐COP and MuLBSTA severity scores were assessed on admission. Risk scores were related to mortality and ICU admission. Results: About 249 patients, 143 males (57.4%) were included. The mean age was 65.6 + 16.1 years. Factors associates with mortality in the multivariate analysis were age > 80 years (OR: 13.9; 95% CI 3.8‐51.1) (P =.000), lymphocytes < 800 (OR: 2.9; CI 95% 1.1‐7‐9) (P =.040), confusion (OR: 6.3; 95% CI 1.6‐24.7) (P =.008) and NT‐proBNP > 500 pg/mL (OR: 10.1; 95% CI 1.1‐63.1) (P =.039). In predicting mortality, the PSI score: AUC 0.874 (95% CI 0.808‐0.939) and the CURB‐65 score: AUC 0.852 (95% CI 0.794‐0.909) were the ones that obtained the best results. In the need for ICU admission, the SMART‐COP score: AUC 0.749 (95% CI 0.695‐0.820) and the MuLBSTA score: AUC 0.777 (95% CI 0.713‐0.840) were the ones that obtained better results, with significant differences with PSI and CURB‐65. The scores with the lowest value for ICU admission prediction were PSI with AUC of 0.620 (95% CI 0.549‐0.690) and CURB‐65 with AUC of 0.604 (95% CI 0.528‐0.680). Conclusions: Prognosis scores routinely used for CAP (PSI and CURB‐65) were good predictors for mortality in patients with Covid‐19 CAP but not for need of hospitalisation or ICU admission. In the evaluation of Covid‐19 pneumonia, we need scores that allow to decide the appropriate level of care. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
