Abstract Background Different indices have been devised that attempt to correlate the severity of the symptoms and predict mortality mainly in septic states and inflammation, with important results that validate their usefulness. In the present pandemic, to date, no indices have been used in severe cases of Covid- 19 that can predict the outcome. Result of the measurement of demographic and clinical variables Comparative analysis of the variables studied stratified by hospital outcome Methods It includes a cohort of patients with pneumonia confirmed by Sars Cov 2 PCR-RT, treated at the Veracruz Norte branch of the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social from April to May 2020, analyzing the neutrophil-lymphocyte, platelet-lymphocyte and immunity-systemic inflammation indices. Correlation analysis of severity hematological variables with hospital outcome Results We included 100 patients, 54 (54%) women and 46 (46%) men, with a mean age of 49.4 ± 19.3 years. The mean of leukocytes was 10,103.0 ± 4,289.0 cel / mm3, neutrophils 8,509.3 ± 4,216.0 cel / mm3 and lymphocytes of 1,112.7 ± 585.4 cel / mm3; Regarding the hematological indices used to measure severity, we found that the mean of the INL was 10.7 ± 10.9, that of the IPL was 290.1 ± 229.2 and that of the IIIS was 2.6 ± 3.4 x 109. Regarding the type of pneumonia, 54 (54%) had mild pneumonia and 46 (46%) had severe pneumonia. Regarding hospital outcomes, 75 (75%) of the patients were discharged due to clinical improvement and 25 (25%) of the patients died during the hospital stay. The mean age was significantly higher in the group of patients who died during the hospital stay (45.9 ± 18.6 VS 60.0 ± 17.5 years, p = 0.001), the proportion of women who died was higher and tended to be statistically significant. The mean INL was 20.4 ± 16.9 in patients who died VS 7.5 ± 4.9 in patients who improved (p = 0.001). The mean IPL was 417.1 ± 379.7 in patients who died VS 247.7 ± 127.4 in patients who had improvement; p = 0.038. Finally, the mean IIIS was significantly higher in patients who died VS patients who had clinical improvement (4.8 ± 6.1 VS 1.9 ± 1.2; p = 0.030, respectively). In the correlation analysis, high and significant r were found in the three indices. Conclusion Neutrophil-lymphocyte, platelet-lymphocyte and systemic immunity-inflammation indices in patients with Covid-19 pneumonia can be used as predictors of severity and predict hospital outcome.
