Introduction: Our study aimed to analyse the effectiveness of four scoring models in predicting mortality of intensive care unit (ICU) hospitalized COVID-19 patients. The models used in this regard were: Rapid Emergency Medicine Score (REMS), Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE-II), and the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA).Materials and Methods: A single-centre and retrospective analysis was carried out by considering definitive or probable COVID-19 patients hospitalized our hospital’s ICU unit. Patients who were admitted to our hospital’s ED between 11.03.2020 – 31.12.2020, and transferred directly to ICU from the ED due to being diagnosed with COVID-19 were included in our study. 411 patients above 18 years old were found appropriate for the study.Results: Among the patients, the mean age was 69 and 61.6% were male. Laboratory values such as creatinine, potassium(K), white blood cells(WBC), hematocrit(HTC), pH, and physiological findings such as mean arterial pressure, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, FiO2 were found statistically significant (p<0.05). Besides, comorbidities were observed in 368(89.5%) patients, and malignancy and dementia were statistically associated with death (p<0.001 and 0.019, respectively). All four of the scoring systems (REMS, CCI, APACHE-II, and SOFA) were statistically an indicator of in-hospital mortality (p<0.001). However, when ROC analysis was used to compare the discriminatory power of the scoring systems, no meaningful difference was detected (p>0.05).Conclusion: We investigated that REMS, CCI, APACHE-II, and SOFA were effective in determining the in-hospital mortality of critically ill COVID-19 patients; however, no remarkable superiority existed between each other. These models may be guiding for ED physicians in terms of risk classification.
