The number of COVID-19 patients with symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) according to the anticoagulation regimen and admission to intensive care unit (ICU)
Ward | Transferred to ICU | Admitted to ICU | Totally | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Prophylactic LMWH | 0/4 (0) | 0/0 | 0/0 | 0/4 (0) |
Intermediate LMWH | 3/116 (2.6) | 3/12 (25) | 0/1 (0) | 6/129 (4.7) |
Therapeutic LMWH | 0/20 (0) | 3/10 (30) | 2/5 (40) | 5/35 (14.3) |
Totally | 3/140 (2.1) | 6/22 (27.3) | 2/6 (33.3) | 11/168 (6.5) |
The figures represent the number of patients with confirmed symptomatic VTE divided by the number of patients within a specific subgroup (percentage). Totally 140 patients were admitted to the ward and never transferred to the ICU; 22 patients were admitted to the ward and further transferred to the ICU due to deterioration; 6 patients were admitted initially to the ward with severe disease. Intermediate LMWH: Subcutaneous enoxaparin 80 mg once daily; Prophylactic low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH): subcutaneous enoxaparin 40 mg once daily; Therapeutic LMWH: subcutaneous enoxaparin 1 mg/kg twice daily.
