More Details: Aim. Evaluation of the clinical characteristics in patients with COVID-19. Materials and methods. The article presents clinical and instrumental data of 1169 patients included in a single-center mixed study. Patients were tested for COVID-19 using polymerase chain reaction, computed tomography (CT), and antibody screening. Clinical history data were collected. Results. In patients with confirmed COVID-19, lung damage and a positive test for antibodies were observed in 75.5 and 45.2% of cases, respectively. The most common symptoms of COVID-19 were: fever (73.2%), weakness, (72.7%) dry cough (62.8%) and shortness of breath (55.4%). Patients with CT-visualized lung lesions were more likely to have clinical symptoms and elevated levels of antibodies. Patients with chronic diseases of the endocrine system, circulatory system, and respiratory system had a more severe course of the disease (CT-14: 91.296.3%) than patients without chronic diseases (CT-14: 85,1%). Conclusion. We have compiled a clinical profile of patients with COVID-19 and highlighted the most significant clinical characteristics corresponding to a more severe course of the disease. Our data showed that patients with chronic diseases require a personalized approach and the development of specific criteria for the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19.
