Clinical characteristics and outcomes in consecutive hospitalised COVID-19 patients within South East Scotland: a multi-centre cohort study
Project Lead: Dr Meghan Perry
Within NHS Lothian we have collected information about patients admitted with COVID-19. This project would use this information to describe the patterns seen in these patients. This could help researchers and Doctors work out those people who are at higher risk of becoming seriously unwell. Additionally by recognising those at higher risk, we may be able to suggest policy change to protect these groups.
