Lymphocyte - Monocyte Ratio As An Independent Predictor For Progression Of Illness In Patients With Covid-19

Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID 19), first identified in December 2019 in a cluster of population in a Chinese province, soon emerged as a pandemic, causing a huge strain on healthcare system and mortality all over the world. An ideal marker for predicting course of this illness should be easily available and reproducible; as the disease burden has spread to third world countries whose healthcare system is resource limited. Our study is aimed to study the utility of lymphocyte- monocyte ratio in the early stages to predict the progression of COVID 19 pneumonia.

Treatment and study plan

LYMPHOCYTE MONOCYTE RATIO

Diagnostic Test

Absolute lymphicyte and absolute monocyte counts are recorded on admission of COVID -19 positive patient and ratio is derived. the patients are followed up for any progression of disease stage.

Primary outcomes

  1. progression

    Time frame: 28 days

    disease progression equal or more than 2 stages

Secondary outcomes

  1. mortality

    Time frame: 28 days

    end outcome of the patients diagnosed of COVID-19 infection
