Hospital based contact tracing of COVID-19 patients and health care workers and risk stratification of exposed health care workers during the COVID-19 Pandemic in Eastern India	2020-11-04		.txt	text/plain	3302	172	58	Number of high risk contacts was more in Non-COVID area (15.84) as compared to COVID area (0.27); p value < 0.001), amongst IPD patients (6.61) as compared to staff (4.02) and OPD (0.22) ; p value = 0.009 and when clustering of cases present (14.35) as compared to isolated cases (8.21); p value < 0.001 Conclusion: The case identification, risk stratification and contact tracing have helped in reducing the number of contacts with due course of time, so preventing the depletion of human resources for continuing health care. In our hospital which caters to both COVID-19 patients and other patients, we adopted the contact tracing and risk stratification approach based on these guidelines to categorize exposed HCWs into high and low-risk contacts. ; https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.11.01.20220475 doi: medRxiv preprint have reported the yield of hospital-based contact tracing of patients and HCWs tested positive for COVID-19 and risk stratification of exposed HCWs in the hospital a statutory body under the aegis of MOHFW, Government of India.	./cache/cord-330261-8sb9sc7o.txt	./txt/cord-330261-8sb9sc7o.txt
