Abstract

Objective: The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has had a negative impact on all healthcare services. We investigated how the intensive care mortality rate, an important quality indicator of intensive care units, was affected during the pandemic at our center. Materials and Methods: In a retrospective single-center internal surgery setting with a 20-bed intensive care unit, patients without COVID-19 were admitted. The mortality rates over a 6-month time period pre- and postpandemic were compared. Results: During the pandemic, the mortality rate at our intensive care unit has increased. We also observed that there was a significant relationship between mortality and the indication for admission to the intensive care unit (postsurgical admission, postadmission for medical reasons, and post-traumatic) and the place of admission to the intensive care unit (emergency department, different hospital) (p

Özet

Amaç: Koronavirüs hastalığı-2019 (COVİD-19) pandemisi tüm sağlık hizmetlerini olumsuz etkilemektedir. Bu çalışmada pandemi döneminde merkezimizde, yoğun bakım ünitelerinin önemli kalite göstergesi olan yoğun bakım mortalite oranının nasıl etkilendiğini araştırdık. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu retrospektif tek merkezli çalışmada, dahili cerrahi non-COVİD-19 hastaların kabul edildiği 20 yataklı yoğun bakım ünitesinde mortalite oranları, pandemi öncesi ve sonrası 6 aylık zaman periyotlarında karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Pandemi döneminde yoğun bakım ünitemizde takip edilen hastalarda mortalite oranı artmıştır. Mortalite ile yoğun bakım ünitesine kabul endikasyonu (cerrahi nedenle kabul sonrası, medikal nedenle kabul sonrası, travma sonrası) ve yoğun bakım ünitesine kabul yeri (acil servis, farklı hastane) arasında anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu görülmüştür (p
