Metadata about: BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) is a global pandemic and information on risk factors for worse prognosis is needed to accurately identify patients at risk and potentially provide insight into therapeutic options. METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, including 3703 patients with laboratory confirmed COVID‐19, we identified risk factors associated with all‐cause mortality, need for hospitalization and mechanical ventilation. RESULTS: Male gender was independently associated with increased risk of hospitalization (Adjusted Odds Ratio (OR(adj): 1.62 (95% Confidence Interval (95% CI): 1.38‐ 1.91)), mechanical ventilation (OR(adj): 1.35 (95% CI: 1.08‐ 1.69)) and death (OR(adj): 1.46 (95% CI: 1.17‐ 1.82)). Patients > 60 years had higher risk of hospitalization (OR(adj): 5.47 (95% CI: 4.29‐ 6.96)), mechanical ventilation (OR(adj): 3.26 (95% CI: 2.08‐ 5.11)) and death (OR(adj): 13.04 (95% CI: 6.25‐ 27.24)). Congestive heart failure (OR(adj): 1.47 (95% CI: 1.06‐ 2.02)) and dementia (OR(adj): 2.03 (95% CI: 1.46‐ 2.83)) were associated with increased odds of death, as well as the presence of more than two comorbidities (OR(adj): 1.90 (95% CI: 1.35‐ 2.68)). CONCLUSION: COVID‐19 patients of older age, male gender or having more than two comorbidities are at higher risk of hospitalization, mechanical ventilation and death, and should therefore be closely monitored.
