Conditions

Antithrombin III Deficiency, Covid19

Brief summary

The purpose of this research study is to see if participants who have SARS-CoV-2 and low levels of AT3 in the blood will benefit by being given AT3.

Interventions

Five total doses of daily 1,821 to 9,100 IUs Antithrombin III, depending on participant's weight, will be administered intravenously every other infusion day (Days 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9).
