This work is devoted to the study of the effect of patients with arterial hypertension and a new coronavirus infection. The aim of this work is to find the relationship between arterial hypertension and unfavorable outcomes of a new coronavirus infection. The objective of the study is to analyze 2236 cases of patients with a new coronavirus infection in order to establish unfavorable outcome risk factors. There was a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) in the proportion of patients whose condition required oxygen support between the group of patients with comorbid pathology and the group of patients who did not have history of concomitant chronic diseases. There was also a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) in the proportion of patients whose condition required oxygen support between the group of patients with comorbid pathology and the group of patients with a history of arterial hypertension only.

Keywords:arterial hypertension, new coronavirus disease, risk factor, unfavorable prognosis.
