- Abstract
- About 30~50% coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) hospital inpatients is reported to have mild clinical presentation, and the clinical course is known to be good even in the elder population. In order to compare the clinical symptoms of mild patients with COVID-19 infection by age, the clinical symptoms and laboratory results were analyzed by dividing mild patients admitted to a dedicated hospital into three groups: under the age of 64, 65-84, and above 85 years of age. There was no difference in gender ratio by age among 555 mild cases. Concomitant diseases with significant differences by age were hypertension, diabetes, stroke, and coronary artery disease. Among the symptoms, cough and sore throat were different by age, and cough was significantly higher in the group under 64 years of age. The white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil count, monocyte, blood sugar, procalcitonin, and creatinine were significantly higher in the 85 years old or older group, and the hemoglobin, albumin, and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) were significantly lower in the 85 years old or older group.
