Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age ≥18 years.
- Active COVID-19 infection confirmed by positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR.
- Radiographic evidence of bilateral pulmonary infiltrates.
- A life expectancy of at least 24 hours.
- Score of 4-7 on the WHO ordinal scale.
- Prophylactic dose anticoagulation is allowed for enrollment into cohort 1. Therapeutic dose anticoagulation for active thrombosis, ECMO, and/or continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is allowed for enrollment into cohort 2 if there is no evidence of bleeding after at least 24 hours of anticoagulation.
- Patient or surrogate able to provide informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- Clinically significant acute bleeding.
- Concomitant use of thrombolytic therapy (e.g. t-PA).
- Hemodynamic instability, defined as a requirement for \>1 vasopressor agent for enrollment into cohort 1, and a requirement for \>2 vasopressor agents for enrollment into cohort 2
