Abstract

Amaç: Bu retrospektif gözlemsel çalışmada hastanemizde uygulanan COVID 19 tedavi protokollerini, yan etkileri ve 28 günlük mortaliteyi araştırmayı amaçladık.
Yöntemler: Çalışmaya COVID-19 tanısı konan ve herhangi bir ilaçla tedavi edilen 621 hastanın tamamı dahil edildi. Hastalar için dahil edilme kriterleri COVID-19 tanısı ile hastaneye yatış ve 18 yaşından büyük olmaktı. Hastalar COVID-19 tedavisine göre 4 gruba ayrıldı: Grup 1 (sadece favipiravir), Grup 2 (hidroksiklorokin (HQ)+ Azitromisin (AZ), Grup 3 (sadece HQ) ve Grup 4 (HCQ+AZ) +antibiyotikler) Cinsiyet, yaş, ilaçlar, altta yatan komorbiditeler, tedavilere bağlı olası yan etkiler (kardiyotoksisite, hepatotoksisite, nefrotoksisite) ve mortalite oranları değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Tedavi grupları arasında yan etkiler açısından fark yoktu. Mortalite oranları HQ+AZ grubunda en düşüktü. HCQ+AZ tedavisi en etkili tedavi protokolüydü.
Sonuç: Çalışmada, favipiravire bağlı daha yüksek ölüm oranının, pandeminin ilk döneminde bu ilacın sadece kritik hastalara uygulanmasına bağlı olabileceği sonucuna varılabilir.

Abstract

Objective: In this retrospective observational study, we aimed to investigate the COVID 19 treatment protocols applied in our hospital in terms of side effects and 28-day mortality.
Methods: All 621 patients diagnosed as COVID-19 and treated with any drugs were included in the study. Inclusion criteria for patients were hospitalization with COVID-19 diagnosis and being over 18 years old. The patients were divided into 4 groups according to the treatments against COVID-19: Group 1 (only favipiravir), Group 2 (hydroxychloroquine (HQ)+ Azithromycin (AZ), Group 3 (only HQ), and Group 4 (HCQ+AZ +antibiotics). The gender, age, medications, underlying comorbidities, possible side effects due to the treatments (cardiotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity), and mortality rates were evaluated.
Results: There was no difference in terms of side effects between treatment groups. Mortality rates were lowest in the HQ+AZ group. HCQ+AZ treatment was the most effective treatment protocol.
Conclusion: It can be concluded from the study that the higher mortality rate due to favipiravir may be due to the administration of this drug only to critically ill patients during the initial period of the pandemic.
