Risk Factors and Impact on Outcomes of Thrombosis in Patients with COVID-19 in Japan: From the CLOT-COVID Study
Abstract
Objectives: The relationship between the thrombotic event and prognosis in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has not yet been fully investigated in Japan. Our study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes and risk factors for thrombosis in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 in Japan. Materials and Methods: We compared the patient characteristics and clinical outcomes among patients with thrombosis (N=55) and those without thrombosis (N=2839) by using a large-scale data of CLOT-COVID study (thrombosis and antiCoaguLatiOn Therapy in patients with COVID-19 in Japan Study: UMIN000045800). Thrombosis included venous thromboembolism, ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, and systemic arterial thromboembolism. Results: Higher rates of mortality and bleeding events were shown in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 with thrombosis compared to those without thrombosis (all-cause mortality, 23.6% vs. 5.1%, P1.0 µg/mL, and moderate and severe COVID-19 status on admission. Conclusions: The development of thrombosis in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 was related to higher mortality and major bleeding, and several independent risk factors for thrombosis could help determine the patient-appropriate treatment for COVID-19.
