Objective: Determine prognostic value of Cytokine Storm Score (CSs) in hospitalized COVID-19 patients.
Materials and Methods: Prospective study, longitudinal follow-up of 81 COVID-19 patients admitted to the COVID-19 treatment center, Military Hospital 175 from August 2021 to October 2021. CSs and CURB - 65 score were used to assess the risk of death when patients are hospitalized for treatment.
Results:81 COVID-19 patients were studied, the mean age was 55.67 ± 14.6. Male patients were 45.7% and female patients were54.3%. There were 44 CSs positive patients, accounting for 54.32%. The higher the conventional CSs score in the more severe COVID-19 patients, the statistically significant difference, p< 0.001. The conventional CSs scale has a good predictive ability of mortality in COVID-19 patients, with an area under the ROC curve of 0.95. The cut-off point with the best predictive value for mortality is CSs ≥ 4 points, with sensitivity 96.55%, specificity 82.69%, positive predictive value 75.67%, negative predictive value 97.72%.
Conclusion: The conventional CSs is an effective tool to predict the risk of death for hospitalized COVID-19 patients.
