[12] found, in a retrospective study in 184 intensive care unit (ICU) patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia, a high prevalence of thrombotic complications and, by far, pulmonary embolism (PE) was the most frequent. Pulmonary embolism in COVID-19 pneumonia with high D-dimer values: A prospective study procoagulant (D-dimer) markers that correlated with the extend of the thromboembolic episode compared to those patients without PE. We included patients with D-dimer values higher than 1 μg/mL, which have been associated with disease severity and in-hospital mortality in patients with COVID-19 infection. Pulmonary embolism in COVID-19 pneumonia with high D-dimer values: A prospective study of our patients, allocated in the non-PE group, was not on enoxaparin prophylaxis during hospitalization. ./cache/cord-294768-bs6thjw2.txt ./txt/cord-294768-bs6thjw2.txt
