Association of Serum Magnesium and Risk of Morbidity and Mortality in ICU-Admitted Patients Based on COVID-19 Infection Classification

Background: Magnesium (Mg) deficiency is a common clinical electrolyte abnormality in critically ill patients, which related to higher mortality and easily ignored. Objectives: We aimed investigate the association of Mg levels with comorbidity patients admitted intensive care unit (ICU) based on COVID-19 infection classification. Methods: A total 69 ICU Shahid Mohammadi Hospital, Bandar Abbas, Iran, from June December 2021were included present study. The serum was measured these patients. Data sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), acute physiologic chronic health evaluation (APACHE), stay length, mechanical ventilation duration, mortality, were determined. Moreover, detected by PCR. Results: mean ± SD age (34.8% male) 52.56 16.43 years. Out 18 (26.1%) died during hospitalization, 24 (34.8%) required ventilation. prevalence 39.1% (27 patients). Our results showed no difference between status. However, level kidney significantly than without (P < 0.05). Based classification, there only positive correlation hypomagnesemia length hospitalization Conclusions: findings Patients had those failure. Furthermore, our
