Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has posed a big challenge to the healthcare community and many stakeholders. According to clinical studies, D-Dimer assays may be the "first line" of technical screening in symptomatic outpatients with suspected venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. This same affirmation may be applied to COVID-19 as its cause. In this study the comparison of the first two years of the COVID-19 appears the tendency of treatment decision making based in D-Dimer levels being a less important parameter. Many patients with COVID-19 have been observed to present with prominently elevated D-Dimers, findings which have been postulated to reflect underlying thromboembolic burden, which have been associated with increased mortality among such patients.
