I was rounding in the ICU when COVID hit, we knew this 2 weeks in - so not new information at all. All my patients got a higher dose of Lovenox (anticoagulant) as soon as they hit the unit.
The trick is balancing risk vs. benefits. Anticoagulants and antiplatelet will kill a 30 yo healthy person who slips on ice and hit his head. Your mild concussions are now massive brain bleeds.
