Objective:To analyze the severe coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19) influencing factors and provide evidence for indi-vidualized treatment of COVID-19 patients. Methods:The med-ical records of 200 cured and discharged COVID-19 patients in Vulcan Mountain Hospital were retrospectively analyzed,and they were divided into two groups according to clinical classi-fications:non-severe(light/normal) and severe(severe/critical). Binary logistic regression was used to estimate potential risk factors for severe COVID-19. Results:The proportion of the 200 COVID-19 patients with non-severe and severe diseases was 57.0% and 43.0%,respectively. There were significant differences in age(t=4.593,P<0.001),pulse rate(t=2.134,P=0.034),hypertension(χ2=23.933,P<0.001),diabetes(χ2=5.141,P=0.023),coronary heart dis-ease(χ2=5.879,P=0.015),albumin(t=3.073,P=0.002),ratio of albumin to globulin(t=2.127,P=0.035),and urea nitrogen(t=2.064,P=0.041). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that age(OR=1.040,95%CI=1.012-1.069,P=0.040),pulse rate(OR=1.029,95%CI=1.000-1.006,P=0.051) and hypertension(OR=4.378,95%CI=2.033-9.429,P<0.001) were independent risk factors of severe COVID-19. Conclusion:We should give timely targeted intervention to the elderly patients with basic diseases,especially hypertension,so as to reduce the potential risk of severe COVID-19.
