An Insight to ncovid-19 associated coagulopathy
: Several current studies have highlighted the high occurrence of coagulopathy in nCOVID-19 infection. The corona virus often prompts hypercoagulability along with both microangiopathy and local thrombus development, and systemic coagulation limitation which causes large vessel thrombosis and key thromboembolic issues such as pulmonary embolism in seriously ill hospitalized patients. Based on recent reports, the most severely ill patients present with coagulopathy, and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC)-like massive intravascular clot formation is frequently seen in this cohort. Therefore, coagulation tests may be considered useful to discriminate severe cases of nCOVID-19. The clinical presentation of nCOVID-19-associated coagulopathy is organ dysfunction primarily, while hemorrhagic events are less frequent. Changes in hemostatic biomarkers represented by increase in D-dimer and fibrin/fibrinogen degradation products indicate the essence of coagulopathy is massive fibrin formation. Overall, the patients have an increase in venous and arterial thrombotic events especially in ICU patients. Routine thromboprophylaxis with low molecular weight heparin is recommended in all hospitalized patients to reduce the incidence of thrombosis. Though, the importance of thromboembolic impediments has not been extensively spotlighted, thus the rationale of this article is to provide recent information about this severe difficulty. In this article the mechanism of coagulopathy, associated problems and possible therapeutics has been reviewed.
