Systematic duplex ultrasound screening in conventional units for COVID-19 patients with follow-up of 5 days.

Objective: COVID-19 patients may develop coagulopathy, which is associated with poor prognosis and high risk of thrombosis. The main objective of this work was to evaluate the prevalence of deep venous thrombosis of lower limbs (DVT) through ultrasonography in patients infected with COVID-19 admitted to conventional units at our hospital with 5 days of monitoring. The secondary objective was to determine if D-dimer levels, body mass index, and C-reactive protein were associated with DVT.

Aminotransferases disorders associated with venous thromboembolic events in patients infected with COVID-19.

Introduction And Objectives: Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, increasing evidence suggests that infected patients present a high incidence of venous thromboembolic (VTE) events and elevated aminotransferases (AT).The objective of this work was to evaluate the incidence of aminotransferases disorders in patients infected with COVID-19 and to manage the VTE events associated with elevated AT.

Patients Or Materials And Methods: We report a retrospective study of 46 patients admitted for COVID-19 infection.
