Risk Factors and Impact on Outcomes of Thrombosis in Patients with COVID-19 in Japan: From the CLOT-COVID Study
ANNALS OF VASCULAR DISEASES(2023)
Abstract
Objectives: The relationship between the thrombotic event and prognosis in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has not yet been fully investigated in Japan. Our study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes and risk factors for thrombosis in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 in Japan.Materials and Methods: We compared the patient characteristics and clinical outcomes among patients with thrombosis (N= 55) and those without thrombosis (N= 2839) by using a large-scale data of CLOT-COVID study (thrombosis and antiCoaguLatiOn Therapy in patients with COVID-19 in Japan Study: UMIN000045800). Thrombosis included venous thromboembolism, ischemic stroke, myo-cardial infarction, and systemic arterial thromboembolism.Results: Higher rates of mortality and bleeding events were shown in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 with thrombosis compared to those without thrombosis (all -cause mortality, 23.6% vs. 5.1%, P< 0.001; major bleeding, 23.6% vs. 1.6%, P< 0.001). Multivariable analysis revealed that the independent risk factors of thrombosis were male sex, D-dimer level on admission>1.0 mu g/mL, and moderate and severe COVID-19 status on admission.Conclusions: The development of thrombosis in hospital-ized patients with COVID-19 was related to higher mortality and major bleeding, and several independent risk factors for thrombosis could help determine the patient-appropriate treatment for COVID-19.
