Background COVID-19 predisposes patients to a prothrombotic state with demonstrated
microvascular involvement. The degree of hypercoagulability appears to correlate with
outcomes; however, optimal criteria to assess for the highest-risk patients for thrombotic
events remain unclear; we hypothesized that deranged thromboelastography
measurements of coagulation would correlate with thromboembolic events. Study Design
Patients admitted to an ICU with COVID-19 diagnoses who had thromboelastography …
