Interestingly, specific comorbidities associated with increased risk of infection and worse outcomes with development of increased severity of lung injury and mortality have been reported. The most common comorbidities were hypertension (30%), diabetes (19%), and coronary heart disease (8%) General Objective: To describe the outcome of COVID-19 confirmed patients with hypertension, admitted in FEU-NRMF Medical Center from January-December 2021 Methodology: Retrospective research design was used in this study. The principal investigator ensured the completeness of each medical records. An incomplete data needed for the analysis were subjected for exclusion. Data were collected via a chart review by obtaining consent Demographic profiles (age, sex, comorbidities), and clinical outcomes (number of hospital days, disposition, mortality) were obtained via chart review. Results: The majority of hypertensive patients were > 60 years old (96; 61,8%), female (81;51.6%), were overweight (66; 42%). Aside from hypertension, DM was also noted as co-morbidity (57; 36.3%). Most these patients were unvaccinated (127; 80.9%). The largest group had uncontrolled hypertension (87; 55.3%) and had hypertension for 0-5 years (54; 34.8%). COVID 19 with hypertension had an increased risk for ICU admission (OR 1.69 [95% Cl 1.3-2.2], p .000 < .05). Hypertensive patients were noted to account for the highest number of extended hospitals stay (14-21 days; 28 (17,8%) and > 21 days; 12 (7.6%), intubation (46; 29.3%), and mortality (30; 19.1%). Conclusions: Hypertension as a comorbidity, especially with no history of COVID 19 vaccination, may potentially compromise the outcome of patients. This was based on the fact that hypertensive COVID 19 patients were seen to have higher likelihood of ICU admission. Keywords: COVID 19, Hypertension, Outcome | ||
