Abstract

Aim: Various clinical studies have been conducted on many alternative options in treating COVID-19 since the beginning of the pandemic process. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of colchicine treatment in patients hospitalized in clinical wards due to COVID-19. Methods: The study was retrospectively planned between October 2020 and October 2021. A total of 110 cases who received colchicine + standard treatment (favipiravir + corticosteroid + anticoagulant + symptomatic treatment) were included in the study group. The control group included randomly selected 220 patients who received only standard treatment. All cases' demographic characteristics, features of antibiotic and corticosteroid treatment, comorbidities, and clinical courses were recorded. Patients who received treatment for less than three days due to COVID-19, patients aged >95 years and

Özet

Amaç: Pandemi sürecinin başlangıcından bu yana COVID-19 enfeksiyonu tedavisinde birçok alternatif seçenek üzerinde çeşitli klinik çalışmalar yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın amacı, COVID-19 nedeniyle hastaneye yatırılan ve yataklı serviste takip edilen hastalarda kolşisin tedavisinin etkinliğini araştırmaktır. Metot: Çalışma Ekim 2020 – Ekim 2021 tarihleri arasında retrospektif olarak planlandı. Çalışma grubuna kolşisin + standart tedavi (favipiravir + kortikosteroid + antikoagülan + semptomatik tedavi) alan 110 vaka, kontrol grubuna ise sadece standart tedavi alan 220 vaka rastgele dahil edildi. Tüm olguların demografik özellikleri, antibiyotik ve kortikosteroid kullanımı, komorbidite durumları ve klinik seyirleri kaydedildi. COVID-19 nedeniyle üç günden az tedavi görenler, 95 yaş üstü ve 18 yaş altı hastalar ve yoğun bakım ünitesinden servise alınan hastalar çalışma dışı bırakıldı. Gruplar yoğun bakım ünitesine yatış ve mortalite olarak tanımlanan COVID-109 enfeksiyonu tedavi başarısızlığı açısından karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Yaş ortalaması olgu grubunda 59,4 yıl ve kontrol grubunda 65,0 yıl idi (p=0,001). En sık görülen komorbidite durumu hipertansiyon (%63) idi. İki grup arasında antibiyotik (p=0,002) ve yüksek doz kortikosteroid kullanımı (p=0,004) açısından anlamlı farklılıklar vardı. Lökosit sayısı (p=0,003), üre (p=0,029), D-dimer (p= 0,021), kreatin kinaz-MB (p=0,003) ve troponin (p
