Abstract

The COVID‐19 pandemic has presented unprecedented challenges to healthcare systems worldwide. This study aims to analyze the clinical profile and survival rates of COVID‐19 patients treated at a government dedicated COVID center in India, providing insights into disease patterns and outcomes in the local context. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients admitted with COVID‐19 to the government facility from March to August 2020. Data on patient demographics, clinical symptoms, comorbidities, treatment regimens, and outcomes were collected. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan‐Meier method and factors affecting mortality were identified using Cox regression. he study analyzed a total of 11,162 patients, showcasing a diverse age distribution and a slight male predominance with 6,873 male and 4,289 female patients. The mortality and survival rates varied significantly across different age groups, with the highest survival observed in the younger age groups and gradually decreasing with age. The survival rate was particularly low for patients aged over 70 years at 67.5%. Gender‐wise, the survival rates were similar, with males at 89.5% and females at 89.7%. The symptomatic patients constituted the majority, with a survival rate of 89.1%, whereas asymptomatic patients had a higher survival rate of 95.4%. These findings highlight the influence of age and symptomatic status on COVID‐19 outcomes, with age being a significant factor in mortality and symptomatic patients showing slightly lower survival rates compared to asymptomatic ones. The clinical profile and survival analysis of COVID‐19 patients in a dedicated government center in India showed a specific pattern of symptoms and comorbidities affecting outcomes. Older age and certain comorbidities were significant predictors of mortality. These findings highlight the need for targeted strategies in managing and triaging patients with COVID‐19, especially in resourcelimited settings.
