Hydroxychloroquine in the treatment of outpatients with mildly symptomatic COVID-19: A multi-center observational study	2020-08-25		.txt	text/plain	4165	325	48	Methods: We examined the association between outpatient hydroxychloroquine exposure and the subsequent progression of disease among mildly symptomatic non-hospitalized patients with documented SARS-CoV-2 infection. [15] [16] [17] [18] In this multi-center observational cohort study we report progression from mildly symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection diagnosed as an outpatient progressing to subsequent need for in-patient hospitalization according to outpatient exposure to hydroxychloroquine. This retrospective, observational, multicenter cohort study within the Hackensack Meridian Health network (HMH) utilized EHR-derived data of patients with documented SARS-CoV-2 infection who received care initially within an outpatient setting. Our primary objective was to evaluate the association between hydroxychloroquine exposure and subsequent need for hospitalization in a population of patients with documented SARS-CoV-2 infection diagnosed in the outpatient setting. In this multicenter retrospective observational cohort study of mildly symptomatic outpatients with polymerase chain reaction documented SARS-CoV-2 infection, we noted an association (OR 0.53; 95% CI, 0.29, 0.95) between outpatient exposure to hydroxychloroquine and a reduction in subsequent need for hospitalization.	./cache/cord-342453-1vj9p7vm.txt	./txt/cord-342453-1vj9p7vm.txt
