AIM: To correlate between CT chest severity score in COVID 19 patients with Clinical [SpO2, RR, PaO2/FiO2] and Biochemical parameters [NLR ratio, CRP, D- Dimer values]. METHODS: A Retrospective, observational study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital in Kanchipuram, Tamil Nadu. 110 patients were admitted to the hospital with COVID 19 [RT PCR swab for COVID 19 positive and radiologically positive] between March 2021 to June 2021. The patient was clinically, radiologically, and biochemically evaluated. CT chest severity score was used to differentiate the patients into mild, moderate, and severe groups. The relationship between CT Severity score and Clinical parameters such as SpO2, RR, PaO2/FiO2 and Biochemical markers [ NLR ratio, CRP, D-Dimer] were studied. RESULTS: CT chest severity score was found to be positively correlated with decreased SpO2 levels, decreased PaO2/ FiO2, increased RR and elevated NLR ratio, D Dimer and CRP levels(P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: The 25 CT Severity score scores well with the Clinical parameters and biochemical markers. Our data suggest that CT Chest Severity Score correlates well with clinical parameters and biochemical markers.

Background: Care of critically ill children continues to be one of the most challenging aspects of the field of paediatrics. Our study therefore, was done to see the demographic and morbidity pattern of the disease at a tertiary care hospital in the Sub Himalayan region and also the modifications that can lead to better outcomes.Methods: This was a retrospective record-based study which reviewed the admissions in to the PICU of tertiary care centre in the Sub Himalayan region of North Bengal for a period of 2 years (April 2018 to April 2020) with age group more than one month to twelve years of age from both medical and surgical sub-specialties. Data collected in pre-designed pro forma. Descriptive study analysis was done.Results: Out of the total 776 cases analysed 59% were male. LRTI comprised of maximum percentage of cases 27.8%, followed by sepsis (21.6%) and meningo encephalitis (16.7%). A maximum of 39% stayed for 3-7days in PICU, and 29.9% expired. Out of the total deaths, meningo encephalitis was responsible for maximum (27.6%).Conclusions: Our study is the first of its kind depicting the the demographic and morbidity patterns of the disease at a PICU in a tertiary care hospital in the Sub Himalayan region. Outcome analysis showed that PICU mortality rate was higher than in relevant recent studies.
