Brief Summary

Increased D-dimers at admission of COVID-19 infected patients entering hospital due to a severe disease is a risk factor for death. Understanding this acquired coagulopathy is a prerequisite before specific interventional studies. The study investigators aim to apply a normalized and automated thrombin generation test (TGT), developed for testing the thrombotic risk (triggered by 5 pM Tissue Factor, with a purified thrombomodulin (TM) challenge) and to study its association with survival.

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • 3-month survival rate

    3 months

  • Transfer to intensive care unit during hospitalization

    3 months

  • Thrombotic complication during hospitalization

    3 months

  • Plasma concentrations of D-dimers

Interventions

D-dimers (coagulation plus fibrinolysis), soluble fibrin monomers (coagulation only)

lag time, initial velocity, time-to-peak, thrombin peak, total thrombin generation time, extrinsic thrombin potential (ETP). Crude quantitative values and relative values (%, by reference to the one obtained with an invariant reference plasma). Both without the addition of purified thrombomodulin (TM-) and with the addition of purified thrombomodulin (TM+). The ability of TM to inhibit thrombin generation will be calculated as follows: \[ETP (%)(TM+) / ETP (%)(TM-)\].
