Incidentally Detected SARS‐COV‐2 Among Hospitalized Patients in Los Angeles County, August to October 2020
We aimed to determine the percentage of COVID‐19–associated hospitalizations reported to Los Angeles County (LAC) Public Health that might have been misclassified because of incidentally detected SARS‐CoV‐2. We retrospectively reviewed medical records from a randomly selected set of hospital discharges reported to LAC Public Health from August to October 2020 for a clinical diagnosis of COVID‐19 or a positive SARS‐CoV‐2 test result. Among the 13,813 discharges from 85 hospitals reported to LAC Public Health as COVID‐19–associated hospitalizations from August to October 2020, 346 were randomly selected and reviewed. SARS‐CoV‐2 detection was incidental to the reason for hospitalization in 12% (95% confidence limit, 9%‐16%) of COVID‐19 classified hospital discharges. Adjusting COVID‐19–associated hospitalization rates to account for incidental SARS‐CoV‐2 detection could help public health policymakers and emergency preparedness personnel improve resource planning..
