Abstract:<\/strong>
Background: Patients with chronic lung disease especially Asthma and\/or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) are at an increased risk of acquiring COVID-19. Hence, these patients have been asked to shield in the United Kingdom (UK) during the pandemic.
\nAims: Our objective was to look at the severity of COVID and in-hospital mortality, in patients that had COPD and\/or Asthma and were admitted to our rural district general hospital with a positive PCR for SARS-CoV2.
\nMethod: We carried out a retrospective analysis from the 3rd and 4th week of January 2021, on patients in our hospital with COVID-19 and COPD and\/or Asthma. The severity of COVID was defined by their need for O2+ devices (Non-invasive ventilation in the form of BiPAP, CPAP or CPAP HOOD and High flow nasal cannula). We used MS Excel for data analysis.
\nResults: 247 patients were in hospital, 52% males(n=129) with a mean age(SD) 73 (14.7) years. We excluded 127 who tested negative for SARS-CoV2 and then a further 92 who had tested positive for SARS-CoV2 but did not have COPD and\/or Asthma.
\nIn total, 28 patients were included in the study. 79% males(n=22). Mean age(SD) 75 (11.5) years. 29(n=8) had severe disease and needed treatment with O2+ device. Of these, 50%(n=4) died during admission. Overall unadjusted mortality was 25%(n=7) and these patients had on an average 3 comorbidities with a mean age(SD) of 80 (14) years.
\nConclusion: Retrospective analysis in our cohort of COVID-19 patients\u2019 showed 23% have underlying COPD and\/or Asthma and within this group
\n1) 1 in 3 patients will have severe disease needing O2+ treatment
\n2) 1 in 4 patients will die
\n3) Mean Age of 80 years and \u2265 3 comorbidities will carry a poor prognosis.<\/p>\n
