Demographics and clinical presentation
Two hundred and sixty-two medical charts of patients with confirmed COVID-19 were evaluated. Thirty-five patients were excluded due to the length of hospital stay (less than 24 h). Table 1 shows the demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients. Of total study population, 60.8% were male. A median number of 8 medications (IQR, 6–9) were administered for the patients during 24-48 h of hospital admission. About 68% of the patients had at least one comorbidity. The most common comorbidity was hypertension (30.4%), followed by obesity (27.8%) and diabetes (23.8%).
