  Author(s): Sherif Sabry*, Kerollos N. Naguib, Mohamed A. Hamila and Ahmed Yassin
  
  Background: Several markers were linked to adverse clinical outcomes in critically ill patients with COVID-19. Previous reports showed that elevated Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR), C-Reactive Protein (CRP), D-dimer, vitamin D levels, and serum ferritin are associated with worse outcomes and increased mortality of critically ill patients with COVID-19; however, evidence is still insufficient to implement the predictive values of these markers in the management algorithm for the patients. Objectives: To evaluate the predictive value of five blood markers on the outcomes of critically ill COVID-19 patients. Methods: We performed a prospective study that included 40 critically ill patients with COVID-19 (COVID severity index ≥ 8) who were admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of a tertiary hospital in Egypt. Blood samples for the studied mark.. Read More»
