Group/Cohort |
---|
COVID-19 patients with neurologic manifestations
Patients with confirmed COVID-19 disease who presented with neurological symptoms or new-onset neurological disorders/complications
|
COVID-19 patients without neurologic manifestations
Patients with confirmed COVID-19 disease who did not present with neurological symptoms or new-onset neurological disorders/complications
|
- Mortality (binary outcome) [ Time Frame: from admission until occurrence of mortality, assessed up to 6 months ]Defined as patients with confirmed COVID-19 who died
- Respiratory failure (binary outcome) [ Time Frame: from admission until occurrence of respiratory failure, assessed up to 6 months ]Defined as the patient with confirmed COVID-19 who experienced clinical symptoms and signs of respiratory insufficiency. Clinically, this condition may manifest as tachypnea, abnormal blood gases (hypoxemia or hypercapnia), signs of increased work of breathing, and requires oxygen supplementation
- Duration of ventilator dependence (continuous outcome) [ Time Frame: day of intubation to day of extubation, assessed up to 6 months ]Defined as the number of days from initiation of assisted ventilation to extubation
- Intensive care unit (ICU) admission (binary outcome) [ Time Frame: admission to ICU admission, assessed up to 6 months ]Defined as the patients with confirmed COVID-19 who are admitted to an ICU or ICU-comparable setting
- Length of ICU stay (continuous outcome) [ Time Frame: ICU admission to ICU discharge, assessed up to 6 months ]Defined as the number of days admitted in the ICU or ICU-comparable setting
- Length of hospital stay (continuous outcome) [ Time Frame: admission to hospital discharge, assessed up to 6 months ]Defined as the number of days from admission to discharge
