Hemostatic Profile of Post COVID-19/Long COVID-19 Patients

The present study aims at assessing long-term hemostatic profile of patients recovered from COVID-19 acute infection that remain asymptomatic (POST-COVID) versus patients with residual symptoms (LONG-COVID) through the employment of a commercially available new generation point-of-care viscoelastic device. The primary endpoint is based upon the hypothesis that patients with residual symptoms maintain an abnormal coagulation profile even after recovery from COVID-19.

Key information

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • age > 18 years;
  • recovery from acute COVID-19 infection;
  • COVID-19 pneumonia that required hospitalization in our Institution;
  • discharge from the hospital minimum 3 months before the day of the visit;
  • written consent to participate to the study.

Exclusion criteria

  • none.

Treatment and study plan

ClotPro assessment

Diagnostic Test

Point-of-care viscoelastic assessment of the coagulation profile (extrinsic pathway, intrinsic pathway, fibrinogen contribution, tPA stimulated fibrinolysis)

Laboratory analysis

Diagnostic Test

Blood count and standard coagulation tests (INR, aPTT, fibrinogen, D-dimers, antithrombin)

interview

Other

Questionnaire from ISS (Istituto Superiore Sanità, the National Health Institute) about the health conditions before the acute COVID-19 infection, the disease (and the hospitalization) details and the eventual health disturbances experienced after the recovery from COVID-19 infection.

Primary outcomes

  1. ClotPro EXTEST

    Time frame: Day of the visit

    Extrinsic pathway of the coagulation as measured by the ClotPro (coagulation time CT, seconds; maximum clot firmness, MCF, millimeters)

  2. ClotPro INTEST

    Time frame: Day of the visit

    Intrinsic pathway of the coagulation as measured by the ClotPro (coagulation time CT, seconds; maximum clot firmness, MCF, millimeters)

  3. ClotPro FIBTEST

    Time frame: Day of the visit

    Fibrinogen contribution to the overall clot strength as measured by the ClotPro (maximum clot firmness, MCF, millimeters)

  4. ClotPro TPATEST

    Time frame: Day of the visit

    Resistance to the fibrinolysis induced by the tPA (tissue plasminogen) as measured by the ClotPro (lysis time, LT, seconds; maximum lysis, ML, %).
