Completed

• Conditions: Long-term Consequences of COVID-19 Infection
• Interventions: Other: descriptive

• Registration Number: NCT05372341
• Lead Sponsor: Samsun University

Brief Summary

The Covid-19 infection has led to global health crisis. As the number of patients recovering from Covid-19 infection increases, it is necessary to create an understanding of the health problems that concern them. Reports of persistent and long-lasting effects are increasing after Covid-19 infection .

Detailed Description

Data on postoperative outcomes in the patient population with Covid-19 infection are limited. In more than half of these patients, pulmonary complications and mortality are seen between 19-24%. Covid-19 infection positivity has been shown as an independent risk factor for surgical mortality. In this study, we aimed to examine the results of patients who were hospitalized and operated electively after they has Covid-19. Among the patients who were hospitalized and followed up in our hospital due to Covid-19 infection between July 2020 and July 2021, those over the age 18 and opereted on electively will be included in the study. By accessing the hospital records, patients Covid-19 treatment records, length of hospital stay, intensive care follow-up, processes, pulmonary support conditions, lung involvement, time until the operation, operation type, operation time, ASA classification, anesthesia type, post-operative follow-up processes, post-operation intensive care needs, time to discharge and mortality will be examined. After the data of of the patients were recorded using SPSS19 program, statistical analysis will be performed using the arithmetic mean, median, standart deviation and Chi-square test, which are among the measures of distribution and prevalence.
