        abstract = {Introduction: The scoring systems can help classify COVID-19 patients into different groups for optimal resource allocation. While numerous scoring systems have been developed, research on their applicability to the Indian population is relatively limited. This review compares published COVID-19 scoring systems used in India with prominent systems employed globally.
Discussion: Key findings of this review analyses include several scoring systems have been developed, including CHASE, OUR-ARDS, and NEWS2. These systems incorporate clinical, laboratory, and radiological factors; they can assist in triaging patients and predicting mortality risk. 
Conclusion: It's crucial to remember that scoring systems and guidelines are continuously evolving based on new research and clinical findings. Healthcare professionals must stay updated and utilize these tools effectively to prioritize and manage COVID-19 patients based on and each system has its own strengths and limitations.},
