COVID-19 outpatients and surviving inpatients exhibit comparable blood test results that are distinct from non-surviving inpatients

Aim: The decision of admitting COVID-19 patients as inpatients is mostlydetermined by chest X-ray based diagnosis pneumonia severity. However, prognosis may diverge into two groups, onegroup did not survive while another group did.
 Material and Method: More than 100 outpatients are collected from Tokat, Turkey in three categories: outpatients, surviving inpatients, deceased inpatients. Their blood test profiles analyzed compared bydimension reduction techniques classic statistical tests.
 Results: We observe that share a common profilewith the whereas non-surviving aredistinctively different. areon average older. Among older certain age, non-survivinginpatients have higher neutrophil level, lower lymphocyte level(thus neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio), calcium level,higher C-reactive-protein, sodium, whole cell andlower hemoglobin (whether these or outpatients).
 Conclusion: Surviving status more important in- out-patient statusin patient’s cluster membership on profile. This result suggests plan to use both testresults criterion admit
