Therefore, we designed a study with the aims of assessing the prevalence of DVT among subjects with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia in the setting of SCU and investigating the clinical and laboratory characteristics associated with DVT in COVID-19 patients. The findings of a high prevalence of DVT in patients taking the usual thromboprophylaxis and estimated at low risk of thrombotic complications according to the traditional risk assessment model (such as the Padua Prediction Score), emphasize some unsolved issues: i) potential SARS-CoV-2-related hypercoagulable state, ii) appropriate VTE risk stratification for hospitalized COVID-19 patients, and iii) the choice of anticoagulant agents and relative doses, which require further investigations [2] .	./cache/cord-314259-26jriik0.txt	./txt/cord-314259-26jriik0.txt
