To address this, Thachil noted that use of anticoagulation in patients with elevated D-dimers may decrease mortality by both preventing thrombi and dampening the inflammatory response triggered by COVID-19 [7] . Thus, at our center, it was decided that therapeutic anticoagulation should be initiated empirically for patients with COVID-19 who have a D-dimer > 10,000 ng/ mL and considered for patients who have a D-dimer between 2000 and < 10,000 ng/mL using treatment dose enoxaparin or heparin titrated to a low therapeutic anti-Xa goal of 0.3-0.5 U/mL.	./cache/cord-292345-zc209dfx.txt	./txt/cord-292345-zc209dfx.txt
