In-hospital mortality predictors among COVID-19 patients in the West Bank, Palestine: a multi-center retrospective cohort study
This study identified key predictors of COVID-19 mortality in Palestine, emphasizing the need to prioritize high-risk groups such as obese and pregnant patients. The findings highlight disparities between hospitals and reinforce the importance of standardizing care across healthcare facilities. These insights can help shape evidence-based health policies tailored to the Palestinian context and could serve as a foundational dataset for preparedness in future pandemics or resurgences of COVID-19.
