Coagulation and immune function indicators for monitoring of coronavirus disease 2019 and the clinical significance / 中南大学学报(医学版)

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES@#To explore the significance of coagulation and immune function indicators in clinical diagnosis and treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).@*METHODS@#All patients with COVID-19 diagnosed and treated in First People's Hospital of Yueyang from January to March 2020 were enrolled. The general data of patients were collected. The patients were assigned into a light group (=20), an ordinary group (=33), a severe group (=23), and a critically severe group (=7) according to the severity of the disease. Coagulation and immune function indicators of each group were compared, and the relevance of coagulation and immune function indicators was analyzed.@*RESULTS@#The age of COVID-19 patients in Yueyang City was mainly between 45 and 65 years old. There was a significant difference in the coagulation function and immune-related indicators in each group of patients (all <0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#There are some abnormalities in coagulation and immune function in patients with COVID-19, which possess significance for clinical diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
