Introduction: The second wave of the Covid-9 pandemic in Peru generated the highest mortality at the national and global level, however, there is limited information regarding the factors associate with mortality in patientes hospitalized for Covid-19 pneumonia during this period of time. Objective: To identify factors and prognostic factors for mortality and survival of patientes hospitalized for Covid-19 pneumonia during the second wave in a tertiary hospital in Peru. Materials and methods: The type of study is a case series of analytical, exploratory type. Adult patients over 18 years of age with a diagnosis of suspected or confirmed SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia who were admitted to hospital between January 1 and February 28, 2021 were included. 683 patients were included, of which 429 (62.81%) They were men and 254 (37.19%) women, the median duration of symptoms before admission was 7 [6-10] days. The most frequent symptom was dyspnea 584 (85.88%). In-hospital mortality was 63.54% (434 patients). In the bivariate analysis, an association was found between mortality and inflammation markers (leykocytes, lymphocytes, D-dimer, C-reactive protein, lactic dehydrogenase, and ferritin) with p<0.005. The mortality rate adjusted to patient-day at risk was 6.68 deaths per 100 days of hospitalization at risk and the median survival of deceased patients was 6 [2 – 10] días. In the multivariate analysis only age >60 years [OR: 2.98 (2.13 – 4.17); p = 0.000] and the longest duration of symptoms before admission [OR: 1.04 (1.00 – 1.08); p = 0.044] were related to mortality. SafiO2 (SafO2/FiO2) ≤ 300 [HR: 0.62 (IC 95%: 0.50 – 0.75) p=0.000], CRP values > 10 mg/dl [HR: 1.56 (IC95%: 1.25 -1.94)], DHL levels >446 [HR: 2.65 (2.13 – 3.30) p= 0.000] constituted the independent prognostic factors related to the survival of patients. Conclusion: Patients with Covid-19 pneumonia hospitalized in the emergency service during the second wave were predominantly male. In-hospital mortality was were predominantly male. In-hospital mortality was high at 63.54%. The factors related to mortality were age greater than 60 years and longer duration of symptoms. The SafiO2 (SatO2/FiO2), CRP and DHL were the most important inflammatory markers related to patient survival.
