Aim: This study sought to evaluate the effectiveness of lactate/albumin ratio for ICU mortality prediction in a large cohort patients with severe Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) admitted intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: is single-center retrospective prospectively collected data derived from COVID-19 dataset all critically ill an academic ICU. Data were used determine relation between and other laboratory parameters measured on first day stay prognostic performance prediction. Results: A total 805 included, median age (IQR) was 67 (57-76) years, 68% being male. 48% 0.53 (0.39-0.59). Survival analysis showed that higher values had significantly lower survival rates (Log Rank p
