Quality for most of the studies was good according to the Newcastle Ottawa scale (7/9 or higher). Studies reported follow-up periods between February 6th up to May 17th, 2020. In patients with COVID-19, obesity was a risk factor for mortality. Obese persons should be treated as a highrisk population, and preventive measures against transmission of the aforementioned infection must be intensified, and specialized assistance must be given to confirmed COVID-19 cases.Esta revisión presenta la evidencia disponible hasta el mes de junio del 2020 y trata sobre el efecto que tiene la obesidad como posible factor que aumenta la mortalidad en pacientes con diagnóstico por infección por COVID-19. La calidad de la mayoría de los estudios fue buena según la escala de Newcastle Ottawa (mayor o igual a 7/9). Los estudios reportaron seguimientos entre el 6 de febrero hasta el 17 de mayo del 2020. En pacientes con COVID-19, la obesidad fue un factor de riesgo para progresar a mortalidad. Las personas con obesidad deberían ser tratadas como una población de alto riesgo y se deben intensificar las medidas de prevención de contagio antes de la infección y proveer asistencia especializada en casos de confirmados de COVID-19.Colegio Médico del Perú2020-10-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://amp.cmp.org.pe/index.php/AMP/article/view/119710.35663/amp.2020.373.1197ACTA MEDICA PERUANA; Vol 37 No 3 (2020): July - SeptemberACTA MEDICA PERUANA; Vol. 37 Núm. 3 (2020): Julio - Setiembre1728-59171018-8800reponame:Acta Médica Peruanainstname:Colegio Médico del Perúinstacron:CMPspahttps://amp.cmp.org.pe/index.php/AMP/article/view/1197/1215https://amp.cmp.org.pe/index.php/AMP/article/view/1197/1228Copyright (c) 2020 ACTA MEDICA PERUANAinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/11972024-07-26T07:34:41Z
