Interim Analysis of Risk Factors for Severe Outcomes among a Cohort of Hospitalized Adults Identified through the U.S. Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)-Associated Hospitalization Surveillance Network (COVID-NET) 2020-05-22 .txt text/plain 4892 274 55 Results: Ninety-two percent of patients had at least 1 underlying condition; 32% required intensive care unit (ICU) admission; 19% invasive mechanical ventilation; 15% vasopressors; and 17% died during hospitalization. Questions remain about the independent 92 association of sex, race/ethnicity and specific underlying conditions with severe outcomes among 93 persons hospitalized with COVID-19, after adjusting for age and other important potential confounders. Having ≥3 underlying medical conditions was significantly associated with higher risk of 250 ICU admission and death after adjusting for age group, sex, and race/ethnicity (Appendix Table 8 ). Older age, being male, 257 and the presence of certain underlying medical conditions were associated with a higher risk of ICU 258 admission and in-hospital mortality. . https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.05.18.20103390 doi: medRxiv preprint of patients hospitalized in New York City did not find race/ethnicity to be associated with ICU admission 269 or death (4). ./cache/cord-262022-kvezhyt5.txt ./txt/cord-262022-kvezhyt5.txt
