1 Optical Coherence Tomography for Microvascular Lung Vessels Obstructive Thromboinflammatory Syndrome Assessment in Patients With COVID-19: an Exploratory Study

To evaluate by intravascular OCT study the presence of microvascular pulmonary thrombosis in patients with COVID-19, high D-dimer levels and contrast CT scan negative for pulmonary thrombosis. We'll also evaluate the extension of microvascular pulmonary thrombosis in patients with contrast CT scan positive for pulmonary embolism in areas where contrast CT scan was negative.

NCT04410549 Covid19 Pulmonary Embolism Diagnostic Test: Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)
MeSH:Pulmonary Embolism Embolism
HPO:Pulmonary embolism

Primary Outcomes

Description: Study primary endpoints will be evaluation of OCT procedure overall safety in COVID-19 pneumonia patients and assessment of the presence of microvascular pulmonary thrombosis in COVID-19 patients, both in "ground glass" and "healthy" ventilated areas.

Measure: optical coherence tomography pulmonary microthrombosis assessment in COVID-19 pneumonia patients

Time: through study completion, an average of 1 month

Secondary Outcomes

Description: Pulmonary artery vessel anatomy characterization in COVID-19 pneumonia patients through OCT diagnostic technique Correlations with single trans-thoracic echocardiography (TTE) pulmonary hypertension (PH, estimated systolic pulmonary artery pressure > 35 mmHg) and right ventricular disfunction (RVD: tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion < 17 mm or Doppler tissue imaging S wave < 9.5 cm/sec). Dynamic correlations with standard inflammatory, coagulation and tissue damage biomarkers: CRP, ferritin, D-dimer, NT-proBNPO, troponins, LDH)

Measure: Pulmonary artery vessel anatomy characterization

Time: through study completion, an average of 1 month

Measure: Correlation between TTE pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular disfunction

Time: through study completion, an average of 1 month

Description: Pneumonia COVID-19 dynamic correlation with inflammation and coagulation markers

Measure: Correlations with standard inflammatory, coagulation and tissue damage
