Abstract

The FI median score was 0.17 [interquartile ranges, IQR 0.12, 0.26] among the 42 patients died or transferred to ICU and 0.07 [IQR 0.05, 0.14] among the 63 patients who recovered ( I p i < 0.001) (Table 1). Future studies are needed to determine if FI is superior to other tools in predicting the outcomes of COVID-19 patients. [Extracted from the article]
