Association Between Caseload Surge and COVID-19 Survival in 558 U.S. Hospitals March to August 2020

Kadri, S., Sun, J., Lawandi, A., et al. (2021). Association Between Caseload Surge and COVID-19 Survival in 558 U.S. Hospitals, March to August 2020. (Abstract only.) Annals of Internal Medicine. 174(9).
The authors assessed the effects of hospital surge on COVID-19 mortality through a retrospective cohort study of administrative hospital data. They found an association between surge and mortality risk and suggested that nearly one in four COVID-19 deaths studied could be attributed to hospital surge illustrating that many hospitals were in crisis conditions that may have not been well-recognized.
