ABSTRACT
Background:
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus 2(SARS?CoV?2) is the novel corona virus first detected in Wuhan in 2019. nCOV belongs to the ?-corona virus cluster. As the third most highly pathogenic corona virus, the clinical presentations of 2019-nCoV infection resemble those of the other two corona viruses, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus (SARS-CoV) and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus (MERS-CoV). The abnormalities in the laboratory indices particularly the Blood Biochemical parameters may be associated with the severity of multiple organ dysfunction seen in COVID-19. The aim of the present project was to analyze the laboratory diagnostic profile of sars?cov?2 (covid?19) patients & to study the associated factors.Methods:
The present hospital � based cross sectional study was conducted on all the patients who had tested positive for COVID & were admitted in Rajindra Hospital, Patiala in the time period of the July 2020 to December 2020, during the declared Corona Virus Pandemic. All the Biochemical Parameters were estimated on the automatic Analysers.Results:
The results of the present study show abnormalities in the Renal Function Tests, Liver Function Tests, Blood sugar levels and Serum Electrolytes. Blood sugar levels and Renal function tests are significantly deranged in the patients of Covid 19 having co-morbidities like Diabetes Mellitus, Hypertension, CAD, CKD, Hypothyroidism etcConclusions:
