Lymphocyte - Monocyte Ratio As An Independent Predictor For Progression Of Illness In Patients With Covid-19

Completed
Conditions
Covid19
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: LYMPHOCYTE MONOCYTE RATIO
Registration Number
NCT04534712
Lead Sponsor
Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh
Brief Summary

Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID 19), first identified in December 2019 in a cluster of population in a Chinese province, soon emerged as a pandemic, causing a huge strain on healthcare system and mortality all over the world. An ideal marker for predicting course of this illness should be easily available and reproducible; as the disease burden has spread to third world countries whose healthcare system is resource limited. Our study is aimed to study the utility of lymphocyte- monocyte ratio in the early stages to predict the progression of COVID 19 pneumonia.
