COVID-19 in Hemodialysis Patients: Clinical Features, Results, and Factors Associated with Mortality

Öz:
Objective: Globally, coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) has affected the elderly population and patients with multiple comorbid diseases. Hemodialysis (HD) patients are at risk of contracting COVID-19 due to immunosuppression caused by chronic kidney disease, advanced age, and existing comorbid diseases. We retrospectively studied the clinical characteristics of total of 121 HD patients with COVID-19. Method: A total of 121 HD patients who met the COVID-19 probable case definition were included in the study. The patients were divided into groups according to their clinical and laboratory findings: mild-moderate, severe, and critical. Subsequently, the patients were divided into classified as either survivors or nonsurvivors and their demographic and laboratory data were compared. Results: Of the 121 patients, 61 (51%) and 59 (49%) were female and male, respectively. Mean age of the patients was 61 ± 14. The most common comorbid disease among the patients was hypertension, followed by coronary artery disease and diabetes mellitus. The most common complaints were cough, myalgia, and shortness of breath. Conclusion: This study contributes to literature by determining biomarkers to predict mortality due to COVID-19 infection in high-risk and vulnerable HD patient population.

Hemodiyaliz Hastalarında COVID-19 Enfeksiyonu: Klinik Özellikler, Sonuçlar ve Mortalite İlişkili Faktörler

Öz:
Amaç: Koronavirüs hastalığı-2019 (COVID-19) enfeksiyonu tüm dünyada, yaşlı popülasyonu ve birçok komorbid hastalığı olan hastaları etkilemiştir. Hemodiyaliz (HD) hastaları, ileri yaş, mevcut komorbid hastalıklar ve kronik böbrek hastalığının, neden olduğu immünosupresyon nedeniyle COVID-19 enfeksiyonu için riski altındadır. Çalışmamızda COVID-19 enfeksiyonu olan 121 HD hastasının klinik özellikleri, sonuçları ve mortalite ile ilişkili faktörleri inceledik. Yöntem: COVID-19 olası olgu tanımına uyan 121 hemodiyaliz hastası çalışmaya dahil edildi. Hastalar klinik ve laboratuvar özelliklerine göre hafif-orta, ağır ve kritik olarak gruplara ayrıldı. Daha sonra hastalar sağ kalanlar ve eksitus olanlar olarak gruplara ayrılarak demografik ve laboratuvar verileri açısından karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Çalışmaya 61’i (% 51) kadın, 59’u (%49) erkek olmak üzere toplam 121 hasta dahil edildi. Hastaların ortalama yaşı 61 ± 14 idi. Hastaların en sık eşlik eden komorbid hastalığı hipertansiyon, ardından koroner arter hastalığı ve diabetes mellitus idi. En yaygın şikayetler öksürük, kas ağrısı ve nefes darlığı idi. Sonuç: Bu çalışma, yüksek riskli ve savunmasız HD hasta popülasyonunda COVID-19 enfeksiyonuna bağlı mortaliteyi öngörmek için beyaz kan hücre sayısı, nötrofil sayısı, laktat dehidrogenaz, aspartat transaminaz gibi biyobelirteçlerin kullanımının faydalı olacağını göstermiştir.
