Predictors of hospital length of stay and mortality among COVID‐19 inpatients during 2020–2021 in Hormozgan Province of Iran: A retrospective cohort study

About one‐fifth of patients with COVID‐19 need to be hospitalized. Predicting factors affecting the hospital length of stay (LOS) can be effective in prioritizing patients, planning for services, and preventing the increase in LOS and death of patients. The present study aimed to identify the factors that predict LOS and mortality in COVID‐19 patients in a retrospective cohort study.
