Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the clinical characteristics and laboratory fingdings, treatment patterns, focusing on the use of anticoagulants and their complications.

Matherial and Method: A retrospective cross-sectional study with analysis of 223 patients with confirmed moderate and severe Covid-19 treated at Treatment 1 Department, from November 1, 2021 to November 30, 2021. Results: 75.78% of COVID-19 patients have been Covid vaccinated, the majority of patients (85.2%) had comorbidities. Desarturation (100%) moderate Covid-19 group ( SpO2: 94.84 ± 6.46, severe Covid-19 group ( SpO2: 89.14 ± 2.10),, dyspnea (84,91%), cough (73,70%), were the most commonly recorded clinical symptoms. There was an increase in serum Ferritin, D-Dimer, PCT, CRP, white blood cell count, neutrophil count, and lymphocyte count at the time of admission. 90.13% of moderate and severe covid patients received anticoagulants during treatment, enoxaparin was the most used drug (82.22%) with prophylactic dose being the first priority dose (52.71%). The rate of bleeding when using anticoagulants was 3.14%.

Conclusion: The majority of demised COVID-19 patients in 175 Military Hospital had comorbilities and were Covid vaccinanted. Clinical and paraclinical characteristics between the two study groups were largely not statistically different, desarturation symptom were more severe in severe Covid-19 group than in moderate Covid-19 group. Low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) are used more often than unfractionated heparin (UFH). Bleeding complications due to anticoagulants are uncommon.
