Investigation of Coagulation Biomarkers to Assess Clinical Deterioration in SARS-CoV-2 Infection.

ABSTRACT: Since December 2019, a pandemic caused by a new coronavirus has spread to more than 170 countries around the world. Worsening infected patients requiring intensive care unit (ICU) admission associated with 30% of mortality. A part of worsening is induced by hemostasis deregulation. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of coagulation activation in COVID-19 progression. Thirty-five of the 99 patients got clinically worse. The final model of the logistic regression analysis revealed that O₂ requirement (RR = 7.27 [1.50-19.31]), monocytes below 0.2G/L (RR = 2.88 [1.67-3.19]), fibrinogen levels (RR = 1.45 [1.17-1.82] per g/L increase), prothrombin fragments 1+2 higher than 290 pM (RR = 2.39 [1.20-3.30]), and thrombin peak (RR = 1.28 [1.03-1.59] per 50 nM increase)
