Abstract:
COVID-19 is an acute respiratory infection caused by the SARS- Cov-2 type coronavirus. The severity of death in COVID-19 patients can also be influenced by the morbidity of diabetes mellitus. However, currently there is still controversy regarding the results of research regarding comorbid factors of diabetes mellitus (DM) with COVID-19. In my research, the aim is to find out whether there is an influence between Diabetes Mellitus (DM) on the level of severity and mortality in COVID-19 patients at Airlangga University Hospital in 2021. This research uses a data collection method in the form of total sampling. The sample used in this study was medical record data on all COVID-19 patients treated at Airlangga University Hospital for the period 1 January – 31 December 2021 who met the inclusion criteria. It was found that male gender, old age (56-65 years), high school education, private sector employment, and complaints of shortness of breath had a major contribution to the mortality of COVID-19 patients with diabetes.
