More than one-fifth of hospitalized COVID-19 patients in New York City have critical illness, and nearly 80% of critically ill patients need ventilators to help them breathe, according to a new study.
. Nearly half of critically ill patients were obese; 62% were Hispanic, and 19% were black.
"What is interesting, and what we have also found at our institution, is that the most common comorbidities associated with critical illness in SARS-CoV2-infected patients are high blood pressure, diabetes and vascular disease [renal and cardiac], and not chronic pulmonary disease," he said. "Our study provides in-depth understanding of how COVID-19 may be affecting critically ill patients in U.S. hospitals," said senior author Dr. Max O'Donnell, an assistant professor in Columbia's Division of Pulmonary, Allergy and Critical Care Medicine.
