ABSTRACT
Objective: To determine the clinical practice of the intentional search of COVID-19
induced coagulopathy at hospital admission and describe its incidence, thrombosis
rates and mortality.
Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study of adult patients with
COVID-19 that required hospitalization was made from April 2020 to May 2021 in
a Mexican private hospital. COVID-19 induced coagulopathy diagnosis was established
if two of these criteria were met: D-dimer above 1 µg/mL, platelet count below
150 K/µL and international normalized ratio (INR) of 1.2 or higher. The population
was divided according to therapy: thromboprophylaxis, anticoagulation vs not-totreat.
General characteristics, mortality, length of stay, and thrombosis rates were
described for each group.
Results: For a total of 532 patients, 116 were evaluable for COVID-19 induced coagulopathy
at hospital admission; the diagnosis was confirmed in 34 of them (29.3%). The
thrombosis rates and mortality were 17.6% and 32.3%, respectively. Those who received
anticoagulation presented with more severe clinical and biochemical characteristics,
hence the length of stay and thrombosis rates were higher in them.
Conclusions: The diagnosis of COVID-19 induced coagulopathy reached 29.3%
in the evaluable population. Its search is close to 21.8% of the patients admitted.
