Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Since the beginning of the year 2020, clinical characteristics of a new disease as the global COVID-19 epidemic has spread in France. People over 70 years of age are the more concerned by this virus in proportion and in gravity with some atypical first symptoms compared to younger patients. Evolution of the disease is variable from forms with few symptoms to severe forms sometimes quickly lethal.

GERICOVID LYON is a descriptive analysis of all patients over 70 years of age hospitalised for COVID-19 in short geriatric unities of University Hospital of Lyon This study will allow more comprehension about COVID-19 in older people. The role of predictive factors, pre-existing comorbidities and the nature and frequency of complications in a short period will be investigate. Treatments practices will be analysed too.

Elder patients hospitalized for COVID-19 in geriatric short stay units.

All patients over 70 years of age, with a positive Polymerase Chain Reaction or a high presumption of COVID-19, hospitalized in short geriatric units in University Hospital of Lyon, who agree with retrospective collection of their clinical datas.

Clinical data collection during hospitalization in short geriatric units.

Intervention Type OTHER

Retrospective clinical data collection, at time of infection and 10 days later. Correlation between mortality and gravity. Identification of predictive mortality factors such as frailty, preexisting comorbidities, complications and treatments. Description of medical prescription evolutions.
