dc.description.abstractBesides the pandemic being over, new SARS-CoV-2 lineages, and sub-lineages, still pose risks to global health. Thus, in this preliminary study, to better understand the characteristics of COVID-19 patients and the effect of certain hematologic biomarkers on their outcome, we analyzed data from 337 patients admitted to the ICU of a single-center hospital in Lisbon, Portugal, in the first three waves of the pandemic. Most patients belonged to the second (40.4%) and third (41.2%) waves. The ones from the first wave were significantly older and relied more on respiratory techniques like invasive mechanic ventilation and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. There were no significant differences between waves regarding mortality in the ICU. In general, non-survivors had worse laboratory results. Biomarkers significantly associated with death changed depending on the waves. Increased high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I results, and lower eosinophil counts were associated to death in all waves. In the second and third waves, the international normalized ratio, lymphocyte counts, and neutrophil counts were also associated to mortality. A higher risk of death was linked to increased myoglobin results in the first two waves, as well as increased creatine kinase results, and lower platelet counts in the third wave.pt_PT
