Correlation between Age and CT severity score in RTPCR positive Covid-19 patients: A Retrospective study
Abstract
: The aim of the study is to retrospectively determine the correlation between the Age and CT severity score of Covid-19 patients. This is a retrospective original research of 357 patients (IPD and OPD) between 1st February 2021 to 31st March 2021 for Covid-19. Patients’ CT severity scores and Demographic variables were recorded. The correlation between CT severity Score and age was determined.357 RTPCR positive Covid-19 patients were included in the study. The Mean age was 44.8 (14.27) and the Mean CT severity score was 7.78(5.92). The Most affected age group was 41 – 50 years of age. (26.61 %). The Highest mean CT severity score was seen in >60 years and the least was seen in < 30 years. A Positive correlation was noted between age and CT severity score (r -0.33, p value <0.05). We conclude that there was a relatively more significant risk and severity associated with the advancing age of the patient.
