ECHENAGUCIA-ECHENAGUCIA, Marion et al. Laboratory parameters of importance in the management of COVID-19 patients. Gac. Méd. Méx [online]. 2021, vol.157, suppl.3, pp.S131-S140. Epub 25-Abr-2022. ISSN 2696-1288. https://doi.org/10.24875/gmm.m21000489.
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) triggers the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), putting the vulnerable population at risk of death. The clinical laboratory faces a challenge for the diagnosis, monitoring, prognosis and evaluation of therapy with low molecular weight heparin. Our objective in this article is to offer a brief discuss of the main changes in the clinical parameters, studied on behalf of COVID-19 patients by a clinical laboratory.
Material and methods:
A bibliographic search was made crossing the terms COVID-19 and clinical laboratory. Relevant publications were analyzed by the members of the Committee for Thrombosis and Hemostasis-AMEH A.C. The relevant articles were discussed, and the clinical tests discussed in the article are those, that meet the criteria of providing information referring to the follow-up, prognosis and evaluation of treatment against the lower cost.
Results:
It is recommended to request a blood count (white cell count, neutrophyl/ lymphocytes ratio), clinical chemistry (transaminases, bilirubin, albumin, urea, creatinine, glucose, lactate dehydrogenase), coagulation tests (prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time, fibrinogen, DD dimers) and special tests (C-reactive protein, ferritin, procalcitonin, troponins).
