Résumé

Prognostic accuracy of the quick sequential organ failure assessment (qSOFA) and CRB-65 (confusion, respiratory rate, blood pressure and age (≥65 years)) risk scores have not been widely evaluated in patients with SARS-CoV-2-positive compared to SARS-CoV-2-negative community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). The aim of the present study was to validate the qSOFA(-65) and CRB-65 scores in a large cohort of SARS-CoV-2-positive and SARS-CoV-2-negative CAP patients. We included all cases with CAP hospitalised in 2020 from the German nationwide mandatory quality assurance programme and compared cases with SARS-CoV-2 infection to cases without. We excluded cases with unclear SARS-CoV-2 infection state, transferred to another hospital or on mechanical ventilation during admission. Predefined outcomes were hospital mortality and need for mechanical ventilation. Among 68 594 SARS-CoV-2-positive patients, hospital mortality (22.7%) and mechanical ventilation (14.9%) were significantly higher when compared to 167 880 SARS-CoV-2-negative patients (15.7% and 9.2%, respectively). All CRB-65 and qSOFA criteria were associated with both outcomes, and age dominated mortality prediction in SARS-CoV-2 (risk ratio >9). Scores including the age criterion had higher area under the curve (AUCs) for mortality in SARS-CoV-2-positive patients ( Hospital mortality and mechanical ventilation rates were higher in SARS-CoV-2-positive than SARS-CoV-2-negative CAP. For SARS-CoV-2-positive CAP, the CRB-65 and qSOFA-65 scores showed adequate prediction of mortality but not of mechanical ventilation.
