Abstract
A bstrAct Aim and background: In this study, the role of hematological indices in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients’ prognosis who have visited our hospital has been evaluated. Materials and methods: Clinical profile, disease severity, disease outcome, blood parameters [hemoglobin, white blood cell counts, neutrophil counts, lymphocyte counts, neutrophil:lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte:monocyte ratio, platelet counts, eosinophil count, and platelet:lymphocyte ratio (PLR)] were evaluated in patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection. Results: High values of leukocytes, neutrophils, and low value of platelets, eosinophil counts indicated poor prognosis in COVID-19 patients. High NLR, PLR, and low lymphocyte:monocyte ratio also indicated a bad prognosis. Conclusion: Monocyte count, lymphocyte count, eosinophil count, NLR, lymphocyte monocyte ratio, and PLR values can be used in the prognosis of COVID-19 patients.
