There is one clinical trial.
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.
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 monthDescription: 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)
