Title: Case fatality of COVID-19 in patients with neurodegenerative dementia Cord-id: rghowch1 Document date: 2020_10_7
ID: rghowch1
Snippet: INTRODUCTION The elderly population is the group most threatened by COVID-19, with the highest mortality rates. This study aims to analyse the case fatality of COVID-19 in a cohort of patients with degenerative dementia. METHODS We conducted a descriptive case-control study of a sample of patients diagnosed with primary neurodegenerative dementia. RESULTS Twenty-four of the 88 patients with COVID-19 included in the study died: 10/23 (43.4%) patients diagnosed with dementia and 14/65 (21.5%) cont
Document: INTRODUCTION The elderly population is the group most threatened by COVID-19, with the highest mortality rates. This study aims to analyse the case fatality of COVID-19 in a cohort of patients with degenerative dementia. METHODS We conducted a descriptive case-control study of a sample of patients diagnosed with primary neurodegenerative dementia. RESULTS Twenty-four of the 88 patients with COVID-19 included in the study died: 10/23 (43.4%) patients diagnosed with dementia and 14/65 (21.5%) controls; this difference was statistically significant. DISCUSSION Our results suggest that case fatality of COVID-19 is significantly higher among patients with primary degenerative dementia than in other patients with similar mean ages and comorbidities.
