Association between ROTEM Hypercoagulable Profile and Outcome in a Cohort of Severely Ill COVID-19 Patients Under Mechanical Ventilation
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Introduction: Recently published data show that COVID-19 is characterized by a hypercoagulable ROTEM profile and decreased fibrinolysis. Multiple reports suggest that severe COVID-19 infection is associated with an increased thromboembolic risk. There are limited data associating a hypercoagulable ROTEM profile and outcomes in the literature. A hypercoagulable ROTEM profile could help identify patients at risk of worse outcome and help target a study population for enhanced anticoagulation therapy or other COVID-19 therapy. Objectives: To determine if early hypercoagulability on ROTEM is associated with a higher risk of thromboembolic complications or worse outcome, in a population of mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients transferred to a tertiary ARDS/ECMO referral center. Methods: All COVID-19 patients receiving mechanical ventilation at our center between April 3 and June 15, 2020 were assessed with ROTEM. Testing performed included at least ExTEM and FibTEM. Patients were classified as hypercoagulable (HC) or not (nHC) using the following criteria from ROTEM: ExTEM clot formation time (E_CFT)< 40 sec, alpha (∝) angle >79° and, either ExTEM or FibTEM maximum clot firmness (E_MCF or F_MCF) >70mm or >24mm, respectively. Outcomes, assessed at discharge from our ICU, included thromboembolic events (TE: composite of deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and ischemic stroke), acute kidney injury (AKI: AKIN stage >2 with or without dialysis), duration of mechanical ventilation, requirement for ECMO, and death. Difference between groups was determined using the chi-square or Fisher-exact test for categorical data and a t-test for continuous variables respectively, using p<0.05 as significant. Results: Of 59 patients included, 31 were hypercoagulable (HC) on admission. Mean (SD) age was 52 (14), and SOFA score on admission was high 15 (2). The severity of disease was similar in both groups especially for the cardiac and respiratory SOFA components (Table 1). The composite outcome of TE was not different between the groups (HC 9/31, nHC 6/28, p=0.7). The composite renal outcome was not different (HC 18/31 vs nHC 16/28). Mortality rate (29%, HC 9 vs nHC 8), and the duration of ventilation in survivors (HC 22 vs nHC 22 days) were similar in both groups. Requirement for ECMO support was similar (HC 8 vs nHC 12, p= 0.27). Patients were tested with daily viscoelastic tests and, neither fibrinolysis nor DIC were documented. All patients received TE prophylaxis and 34 received therapeutic intravenous heparin for ECMO (n=20) or TE treatment (n=14). Initial ROTEM were conducted on therapeutic heparin in 22 cases (12 HC, 10 nHC). Conclusion: Our data suggest that in a population of mechanically ventilated patients with severe COVID-19, an early hypercoagulable profile on ROTEM was not associated with an increased risk of thromboembolic events, AKI, prolonged ventilation, ECMO or death during their ICU stay.

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
