Öğe Characteristics of our hypoxemic COVID-19 pneumonia patients receiving corticosteroids and mortality-associated factors(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Şengül, Aysun; Mutlu, Pinar; Özdemir, Özer; Satıcı, Celal; Turan, Muzaffer Onur; Arslan, Sertaç; Oğan, NalanBackground COVID-19 is a disease associated with diffuse lung injury that has no proven effective treatment yet. It is thought that glucocorticoids may reduce inflammation-mediated lung injury, disease progression, and mortality. We aimed to evaluate our patient's characteristics and treatment outcomes who received corticosteroids for COVID-19 pneumonia. Methods We conducted a multicenter retrospective study and reviewed 517 patients admitted due to COVID-19 pneumonia who were hypoxemic and administered steroids regarding demographic, laboratory, and radiological characteristics, treatment response, and mortality-associated factors. Results Of our 517 patients with COVID-19 pneumonia who were hypoxemic and received corticosteroids, the mortality rate was 24.4% (n = 126). The evaluation of mortality-associated factors revealed that age, comorbidities, a CURB-65 score of >= 2, higher SOFA scores, presence of MAS, high doses of steroids, type of steroids, COVID-19 treatment, stay in the intensive care unit, high levels of d-dimer, CRP, ferritin, and troponin, and renal dysfunction were associated with mortality. Conclusion Due to high starting and average steroid doses are more associated with mortality, high-dose steroid administration should be avoided. We believe that knowing the factors associated with mortality in these cases is essential for close follow-up. The use of CURB-65 and SOFA scores can predict prognosis in COVID-19 pneumonia.Öğe Features of patients newly diagnosed pulmonary embolism during COVID pneumonia(European Respiratory Soc Journals Ltd, 2021) Şengül, Aysun; Aydemir, Yusuf; Özaydın, Derya; Kabalak, Pinar Akin; Soyler, Yasemin; Baykal, Hüsnü; Turan, Muzaffer Onur[Bastract Not Available]
