- W4315703443 abstract "Objective: To study the association of calcium channel blockers (CCBs), the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors or their combination as antihypertensive medications and the clinical outcome of COVID-19 infection. Design and method: This is a retrospective cohort study using de-identified data retrieved from clinical records of COVID-19 patients in two isolation centers. Medical history, demographic data, symptoms, complications and laboratory investigations were extracted from clinical records of 406 confirmed COVID-19 hospitalized patients between Feb 2020 and July 2021. Hypertension and antihypertensive treatments were confirmed by medical history and clinical records. Continuous variables were presented as means ± standard deviation (SD) while categorical variables were presented as percent proportions. Logistic regression was used to assess the impact of antihypertensive drugs (RAAS inhibitors, CCBs, combination of RAAS inhibitors and CCBs and those not receiving medication) on the prognosis of COVID-19 patients and to explore the risk factors associated with mortality.Result: Out of 406 hospitalized COVID-19 patients, 242 (59.6%) had a history of hypertension. Hypertensive patients under the age of 65 years and receiving RAAS inhibitors or the combination of both RAAS inhibitors and CCBs were at higher risk of mortality than those on CCBs only (odds ratio [OR]: 4.45, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.56–12.56, P = 0.005 and OR:3.57, CI: 1.03–12.36, P = 0.045 respectively). Antihypertensive medications did not seem to influence mortality rates among hypertensive patients above 65 years. Routine laboratory investigations were not significantly different between the subgroups receiving different antihypertensive medications regardless of age. Cough was the only symptom associated with mortality among patients under 65 years (OR:2.34, CI:1.24–4.41, P = 0.009). Type II respiratory failure was significantly associated with death among hypertensives under 65 years (OR:5.43, CI:1.08–28.07, P = 0.044) whereas acute kidney injury and septic shocks are the common complications related to death among hypertensives above 65 years (OR:3.59, CI:1.54–8.36, P = 0.003 and OR:7.87, CI: 1.68–36.78, P = 0.009 respectively). Conclusion: Administration of CCBs may improve the outcome of COVID-19 hypertensive patients under 65 years of age. Antihypertensive treatment does not seem to influence the prognosis of COVID-19 patients above 65 years. Such results may affect management strategy of COVID-19 hypertensive patients. Type-II respiratory failure among patients under 65 years of age, acute kidney injury and septic shock among those above 65 years are the most serious complications that can lead to death regardless of blood pressure." @default.
