Brief summary
This study will study the potential utility of the Quantra QPlus System in patients inflicted with COVID-19 disease.
Detailed description
The Quantra System is a fully integrated and automated in vitro diagnostic device which uses SEER Sonorheometry, an ultrasound-based technology, to characterize the viscoelastic properties of a whole blood sample during coagulation. The QPlus Cartridge can measure hypocoagulable and hypercoagulable conditions resulting from the functional interaction of the enzymatic and cellular components of coagulation and therefore, can be invaluable for longitudinal monitoring of the coagulopathies reported in COVID-19 patients and the response to anticoagulants. This single-center, prospective, observational pilot study will characterize changes in the coagulation status of patients with COVID-19 infection during their hospital stay using the Quantra QPlus System.
Interventions
Diagnostic device to monitor coagulation properties of a whole blood sample at the point-of-care.
