Physiological indicators such as blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, andconsciousness status of COVID-19 patients are used to apply the START (simple triage andrapid treatment, START), Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS), and quick Sequential OrganFailure Assessment (qSOFA) as tools for assessing clinical symptom tracking,deterioration, and subsequent improvement in COVID-19 patients. In response to the needfor scarce manpower when a large number of emergency patients appear, a simple andeasy-to-operate assessment method is adopted for mild patients, and artificialintelligence technology can be further used to assist in the assessment for earlyresponse and medication.
Due to the development of the pandemic , the virus has constantly mutated, leading to a
vast majority of mild cases. This has significantly increased the burden on medical
personnel. The investigators are trying to find a way to track whether their clinical
symptoms have worsened. At the same time, the investigators want to know the changes in
patient symptoms in real-time through online monitoring This is a single-center
retrospective study of a group of COVID-19 patients. Review their medical records, mainly
based on hospital field records and existing physiological indicators of patients such as
blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and consciousness status. The partients
visited the hospital between March 2020 and September 2022. All patients were given
physiological value indicators MEWS, qSOFA, and START for scoring and assess the clinical
symptom deterioration of COVID-19 patients.
In this study, The investigators collect the physiological values of each patient and the
data on the nursing records during hospitalization to judge whether the symptoms have
worsened
Other: COVID 19 pandemic
Physiological indicators such as blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and
consciousness status of COVID-19 patients are used to apply the START, MEWS, and qSOFA in
COVID-19 patients.(COVID 19 病患).
