Objective: The optimal anticoagulant treatment regimen in hospitalized coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients is uncertain. This study aimed to compare the rates of disease progression and mortality in patients treated with low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) according to baseline d-dimer levels and in those who received a fixed-dose regimen irrespective of the d-dimer level.
Material And Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of all patients admitted to a university hospital for COVID-19 pneumonia during a 1-year period.
