Event rates and hazard ratios from Cox proportional hazards model for primary and secondary endpoints by COVID-19 status in the matcheda cohort
| Outcomeb | COVID(−) N (%) |
COVID(+) N (%) |
Hazard ratio (95% CI) |
|---|---|---|---|
| All-cause Mortality | 522 (0.04) | 176 (0.04) | 1.6 (1.4, 2.0) |
| Any pulmonary complication | 697 (0.05) | 450 (0.09) | 2.1 (1.9, 2.4) |
| Any thrombotic complication | 645 (0.05) | 214 (0.04) | 1.4 (1.2, 1.6) |
| Any septic complication | 472 (0.03) | 237 (0.05) | 1.6 (1.4, 1.9) |
Abbreviations: CI Confidence Interval; N/A Not applicable
Each COVID(+) patient was matched to up to 3 COVID(−) patients based on age, sex, race, ethnicity, BMI, smoking status, CPT code, anesthesia type, ASA class, case urgency, CCI, and cancer history.
Outcomes were observed 3/1/20–3/26/21. Pulmonary complications are a composite of pneumonia, acute respiratory failure, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Thrombotic complications are a composite of ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, venous thromboembolism, and arterial thromboembolism. Septic complications are a composite of sepsis from an unspecified source, gram-negative sepsis, and post-procedural septic shock.
