Relation of High Sensitive Troponin-I and C-reactive Protein to Mortality in Patients with COVID-19

Objective: The aim of the present study is to investigate whether the high sensitive troponin-I (HsTrop-I) and C-reactive protein (CRP) level that measured on admission is an independent predictor of mortality in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Materials and Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, a total of 175 consecutive patients with confirmed COVID-19 cases were screened from November 01, 2020 to January 31, 2021. Finally, 137 eligible patients were enrolled in to the study. Data of patients were recorded from the electronic medical records and National health data registry. Results: Mean age of study population was 49.7 ± 14.8 year and 88 (64.2%) patients were female. A HsTrop-I level ≥21.6 pg/ml measured on admission had a 86% sensitivity and 88% specificity in predicting mortality. The CRP level ≥80.8 mg/l on admission predicted mortality with 86% sensitivity and 95% specificity in patients with COVID-19. In the multivariate analyzes, HsTrop-I (odds ratio (OR) 1.124, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.025–1.232; p=0.013) and CRP (OR 1.060, 95% CI 1.021–1.100; p=0.002) on admission were independent predictors of mortality in patients with COVID-19. Conclusion: HsTrop-I and CRP levels on admission which are easily measurable laboratory data were independent predictors of mortality in patients with COVID-19. Therefore, HsTrop-I and CRP levels could help to physicians for earlier triage of the patients that potentially worsening and may lead to provide the effective use of health resources..
