SARS-CoV2 is the new pandemic that has been hitting the world, it is spoken of a potentially infectious, transmisible virus with grate morbidity, despite the fact that the majority of infected people are asymptomatic. Being a disease that compromises the immunohaematological system, care must be taken when dealing with people who lack a good funtion of this. Multiple predictors of mortality have been described, clinical, biochemical and imaging, which helps us to be aware of patients who meet criteria to be serious candidates. Among the demographic factors we find prevalence in males, an age between 40-60 years, in addition to the presence of comorbidities such as arterial hipertensión, obesity, diabetes mellitus 2, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, among others; different scales have been established for their evaluation, CURB65 is spoken of as one of the most simple and useful, associated with others with different altered vital signs such as the presence of more tan 30 rpm, or SatO2 <=94%. On the other hand, there are different biochemical studies which let us know if the patient’s evolution is unfavorable. Among the main ones, a hemogram is considered in which we can find leukocytosis, neutrophilia and plaquetopenia; a decrease at the level of CD8 cells, Tcells, a comparison of the increase between the cytokines IL-6, TNF- α and IL-10; a large coagulation profile study, where one of the main factors increased is D-dimer and an increase in prothrombin time. Other factors of relevance are PCR >150 mg/L, increased liver enzymes, as well as increased cardiac troponin I with a value >=0.05 ng/ml. Another resource that helps us to complement the evaluation is imaging studies, as the main and accessible to the population, radiological studies are used using the RALE scale for prognostic evaluation where de most common finding was pulmonary consolidation followed by ground glass opacities. However, tomography is taken as a complete and detailed study, with an unfavorable point due to cost, and cleaning of áreas where the study will proceed. CO-RADS is spoken of as the main scale for prognostic evaluation in tomographic studies. In this study it was evidenced that the most affected lobes evidenced by the CORADS scale were the lowest.
