Thromboembolic complications of SARS-CoV-2: Comparison
View Latest Version
Please note this is a comparison between Version 2 by Conner Chen and Version 1 by Adelaide Iervolino.

Covid-19 has the potential to cause severe damage to many tissues, including systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), acute respiratory disease syndrome (ARDS), multiorgan involvement, and shock. One of the most feared complications are thromboembolic events which lead to severe clinical phenotypes: worsening of pulmonary conditions, oxygen desaturation, and acute respiratory distress. Management choices should be considered according to the critical or chronic setting.                             Main pathophysiological mechanisms underlying thrombosis from Covid-19 are discussed, including metabolic derangements and hormonal factors.

  • thromboembolism
  • COVID-19 infection
  • pathophysiology
  • obesity
  • insulin
  • metabolism
