Venous thromboembolism in COVID-19 patients and prediction model: a multicenter cohort study

Yi Lee et al.

Summary: Patients with COVID-19 have an elevated risk of venous thrombosis, which can lead to extended hospital and ICU stays. A random forest prediction model has been developed to identify predictors of VTE and assist physicians in determining appropriate anticoagulation dosages for COVID-19 patients.

Summary: This study provides an overview of demographics, thrombotic and bleeding events, mortality, and anticoagulant use among hospitalized patients with COVID-19 in the United States. The findings indicate higher rates of thrombotic events and mortality in COVID-19 patients compared to historical controls, with thrombotic events being associated with worse outcomes.

Association of COVID-19 With Major Arterial and Venous Thrombotic Diseases: A Population-Wide Cohort Study of 48 Million Adults in England and Wales

Rochelle Knight et al.

Summary: Incidence of vascular diseases remains elevated up to 49 weeks after COVID-19 diagnosis, with a faster decline for arterial thromboses than VTEs. Patients hospitalized with COVID-19, non-White individuals, and those without previous events are at higher risk. Policies to prevent severe COVID-19, including vaccination, early post-discharge review, risk factor control, and secondary preventive agents, are supported by these findings.

Clinical and Genetic Risk Factors for Acute Incident Venous Thromboembolism in Ambulatory Patients With COVID-19

JunQing Xie et al.

Summary: This population-based cohort study found that ambulatory COVID-19 was associated with a substantially increased risk of incident VTE, but this risk was greatly reduced in fully vaccinated people with breakthrough infection. Older age, male sex, and obesity were clinical risk factors for post-COVID-19 VTE, and factor V Leiden thrombophilia was additionally associated with double the risk. These findings are important for emphasizing the need for vaccination, informing VTE risk stratification, and calling for targeted VTE prophylaxis strategies for unvaccinated outpatients with COVID-19.

Estimating incidence of venous thromboembolism in COVID-19: Methodological considerations

Linda Nab et al.

Summary: This study provides an overview of the sources of heterogeneity in VTE incidence studies in patients with COVID-19. The sources of heterogeneity are classified as clinical sources and methodologic sources, including differences in patient characteristics, VTE testing protocols, VTE inclusion types, data quality, and data analysis methods.

Venous Thromboembolism and Major Bleeding in Patients With Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19): A Nationwide, Population-Based Cohort Study

Michael Dalager-Pedersen et al.

Summary: In a population-based setting, the risk of VTE among individuals with SARS-CoV-2 infection is low to moderate and not significantly increased compared to SARS-CoV-2 test-negative and influenza patients. However, ICU patients may face a higher risk of bleeding while receiving thromboprophylaxis.

Sean Boyd et al.

Summary: COVID-19 ICU patients show abnormal coagulation profile and similar VTE rates to influenza ICU patients. Despite thromboprophylaxis, VTE remains a significant concern in critical care management. Male predominance and similar comorbidity profiles were observed among the three groups.

Occupational risk of COVID-19 in the first versus second epidemic wave in Norway, 2020

Karin Magnusson et al.

Summary: A study conducted in Norway found that during the first wave of the epidemic, nurses, physicians, dentists, and physiotherapists were more likely to be infected with COVID-19 compared to other professions. In the second wave, bartenders, waiters, food counter attendants, transport conductors, travel stewards, childcare workers, preschool and primary school teachers had a higher likelihood of infection. Bus, tram and taxi drivers were also at an increased odds of infection in both waves.

Thor Indseth et al.

Summary: Research found that immigrants in Norway had higher notification rates, hospitalization rates, and mortality rates for COVID-19 compared to non-immigrants, with significant differences observed among different immigrant groups. Somali-, Pakistani- and Iraqi-born immigrants had particularly high rates.

Incidence of VTE and Bleeding Among Hospitalized Patients With Coronavirus Disease 2019 A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

David Jimenez et al.

Summary: The pooled incidence of VTE and bleeding among hospitalized patients with COVID-19 was 17.0% and 7.8% respectively. Factors such as routine screening, critical illness, inclusion of distal DVT and subsegmental PE, and prospective studies were associated with higher rates of VTE. The incidence of bleeding events was sensitive to escalated doses of anticoagulants and the nature of data collection.

Summary: The prevalence of VTE is high in COVID-19 patients, especially in those admitted to the ICU, while the prevalence of ATE is relatively low and further research is needed.

Timing of venous thromboembolism diagnosis in hospitalized and non-hospitalized patients with COVID-19

Ahmed K. Pasha et al.

Summary: The study found a 29-fold increased rate of VTE within the first week after COVID-19 diagnosis, which then steadily decreased and returned to baseline by the 6th week. Most VTE events occurred during or after hospitalization, with only a small percentage (3.0%) in non-hospitalized patients.

Risk of symptomatic venous thromboembolism in mild and moderate COVID-19: A comparison of two prospective European cohorts

Delphine Douillet et al.

Summary: This study assessed the rate and risk factors of symptomatic VTE in patients with mild and moderate COVID-19. It was found that patients with moderate COVID-19 had a higher risk of subsequent VTE after presenting to the emergency department. Age and hospitalization were identified as independent risk factors for symptomatic VTE.

Pulmonary Thrombosis and Thromboembolism in COVID-19

Hooman D. Poor

Summary: COVID-19 is associated with a significantly increased risk of pulmonary thrombosis, possibly driven by a hypercoagulable state and vascular injury. Some patients with COVID-19 may have hypoxemia that is disproportionate to impairment in lung compliance. Diagnosing PE in patients with COVID-19 can be challenging, leading many hospitals to implement aggressive anticoagulation protocols.

Summary: The study reveals a strong association between VTE and the severity of COVID-19 disease, with VTE patients having a significantly higher risk of ICU admission. Therefore, measures to reduce thromboembolism risk among COVID-19 patients should be considered.

Summary: Confirmed COVID-19 infection was associated with early elevations in risk of MI and ischemic stroke, and substantially stronger and prolonged elevations in risk of DVT and PE, both in hospital and community settings. Thromboembolism, especially PE, should be considered among people with COVID-19 in the community.
