Brief summary
This online-based, observational retrospective registry aims to (i) study the rate of cardiovascular events, encompassing venous thromboembolic and arterial events, in consecutive hospitalized patients with coronavirus (Covid19), (ii) investigate the prevalent use of thromboprophylaxis, (iii) describe the use of imaging tests for the detection of cardiovascular events in patients with Covid19. This will also facilitate and constitute the basis for the conduction of interventional thromboprophylaxis studies in patients with Covid19.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Fatal or non-fatal venous thromboembolism (VTE) | during index hospitalization for Covid19 | Rate of thromboembolic events encompassing pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) |
| Fatal or non-fatal cardiovascular events | during index hospitalization for Covid19 | Rate of cardiovascular events encompassing stroke and myocardial infarction |
| All-cause death | during index hospitalization for Covid19 | Rate of death from any cause |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| In-hospital course of D-dimer (μg/mL) | during index hospitalization for Covid19 | Course of laboratory biomarker |
| Prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors | at baseline/enrollment | Baseline prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and use of specific medications (statins, Angiotensin-converting enzyme \[ACE\] inhibitors) |
| In-hospital course of Troponin (ng/ml) | during index hospitalization for Covid19 | Course of laboratory biomarker |
| Length of hospitalization | first index hospitalization for Covid19 | Duration of inpatient stay |
| Prevalent use of in-hospital thromboprophylaxis | during index hospitalization for Covid19 | Use of unfractionated heparin (UFH), low-molecular weight heparin (LMWH), or direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) on/after admission due to Covid19 |
