Thus, we performed a meta-analysis to estimate the pooled prevalence of DVT in confirmed COVID-19 patients. Articles reporting the prevalence of DVT in confirmed COVID-19 patients were included. The meta-regression and subgroup analysis were used to investigate the potential heterogeneity sources (such as sample size, prevalence of prophylaxis in COVID-19 patients, location, design of studies, screening methods of DVT, and COVID-19 patients in intensive care unit (ICU)). The pooled prevalence of DVT in Table 1 Characteristics of the included studies COVID-19 patients treated in ICU was 23% (95% CI 11-38%, P < 0.01, I 2 = 96.44%, Q = 421.29, P < 0.01), which was significantly higher than in COVID-19 patients treated in non-ICU (5%, 95% CI 1-11%, P < 0.01, I 2 = 92.17%, Q = 89.42, P < 0.01) (Fig. 1c, d) .
