Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • All-cause Mortality

    Death at 30 days recorded in the electronic health record. Follow-up starts at the treatment date, which must be within 2 days after both hospitalization and SARS-CoV-2-positive test, and ends at 30 days or death.

    30 days

Study Arms (2)

Exposed

Veterans who received COVID-19 convalescent plasma therapy within 2 days of eligibility

Biological: COVID-19 convalescent plasma

Unexposed

Veterans who did not receive COVID-19 convalescent plasma therapy

Interventions

Convalescent plasma collected from individuals who have recovered from COVID-19

Study Population

Veterans with non-severe COVID-19 who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection during admission at a VA medical center or who were admitted as inpatients to a VA medical center within 30 days after a positive test for SARS-CoV-2 infection

You may qualify if:

  • US Veterans aged 21-80 years old
  • Hospitalized between May 1, 2020 and November 17, 2020 with a SARS-CoV-2 positive test, at a VA Medical Center where convalescent plasma had been administered to at least one patient and remained a current practice at that VA Medical Center
  • SARS-CoV-2 positive test within 7 days before or after hospital admission
  • Minimum oxygen saturation (measured within the past day) \>=90%
  • Vitals (pulse, respiration, temperature, systolic blood pressure) and acute labs (hemoglobin, platelet, white blood cells) measured within the past 2 days
  • Albumin, Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT), creatinine measured within the past 30 days
  • Weight measurement recorded in the past 2 years

You may not qualify if:

  • Prior intubation, ventilation, high flow oxygen, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), dialysis, or vasopressors during current hospitalization
  • Record of prior treatment with CP
  • Received long-term care in a domiciliary or nursing home in the past 90 days
  • First CP recipient at a site
  • Less than 30 days of follow-up
