Since EKG finding of S(I) Q(III) T(III) pattern and right ventricular strain, and ECHO finding of right ventricular dysfunction are well described in PE but not in COVID-19, these bedside diagnostic tools can help identify COVID-19 patients with underlining PEs. Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) (caused by the SARS-CoV-2 [severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2] virus) was first reported in China in December of 2019 [1, 2] . Fever, dry cough, fatigue, shortness of breath, pleuritic chest pain, and elevated D-dimer were some of the commonly reported symptoms in two retrospective studies in China; these data overlap with pulmonary embolism (PE) clinical presentation and laboratory tests [1] [2] [3] .	./cache/cord-271062-ev2efm10.txt	./txt/cord-271062-ev2efm10.txt
