ABSTRACT
(1)

Background:

Several retrospective observational analyzed treatment outcomes for COVID-19; (2)

Methods:

Inverse probability of censoring weighting (IPCW) was applied to correct for bias due to informative censoring in database of hospitalized patients who did and did not receive convalescent plasma; (3)

Results:

When compared with an IPCW analysis, overall mortality was overestimated using an unadjusted Kaplan-Meier curve, and hazard ratios for the older age group compared to the youngest were underestimated using the Cox proportional hazard models and 30-day mortality; (4)

Conclusions:

An IPCW analysis provided stabilizing weights by hospital admission.
