Pulmonary embolism in patients with COVID-19 and D-dimer diagnostic value: A retrospective study

Pulmonary embolism in patients with COVID-19 and D-dimer diagnostic value: A retrospective study

Background: D-dimer levels are significantly higher in COVID-19 patients with Pulmonary Thromboembolism (PTE) as compared to those without PTE, but its clinical utility is still uncertain. Purpose: To determine the D-dimer performance for ruling out PTE in patients with COVID-19. We also assessed cl...
