Background: The clinical spectrum of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection is broad; it can range from asymptomatic cases to mild upper respiratory tract illness, respiratory failure, and severe multiorgan failure resulting in death. Therefore, it is important to identify the clinical course of the disease and the factors associated with mortality. Objective: The aim of this study is to identify the risk factors associated with the severity of the disease, intensive care unit admission, and mortality in COVID-19 patients. Methods: A total of 1075 patients with clinical and radiological findings compatible with COVID-19 pneumonia and positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR were selected and retrospectively screened. All included patients were classified according to the 7th edition of the 2019 Coronavirus Disease Guidelines published by the National Health Commission of China. Results: It was observed that elevated white blood count (WBC) increased the severity of COVID-19 by 3.26 times and the risk of intensive care unit (ICU) admission by 3.47 times. Patients with high D-dimer levels had a 91% increased risk, and those with high fibrinogen levels had a 2.08 times higher risk of severe disease. High C-reactive protein (CRP) values were found to increase disease severity by 6.89 times, mortality by 12.84 times, and ICU admission by 3.37 times. Conclusions: Identifying the factors associated with disease severity, ICU admission, and mortality in COVID-19 patients could help reduce disability and mortality rates in pandemics.
