CONCLUSIONS: Hypercoagulability and secondary hyperfibrinolysis during ECMO support in COVID-19 patients are common and possibly increase the propensity for thrombotic events and failure of the oxygenator. A majority of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients have mild symptoms and recover completely; however, approximately 5-14% become severely or critically ill with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) requiring intensive care unit (ICU) admission 3 . This study aims to summarize the coagulation characteristics, anticoagulation management, and complications of COVID-19 patients who received ECMO support in Shanghai, China. In this study we found that the clinical characteristics of COVID-19 patients were different from those of other viral pneumonia patients in terms of ECMO anticoagulation management and coagulation-related complications. In summary, hypercoagulability and secondary hyperfibrinolysis during ECMO support in COVID-19 patients were common and possibly increased the propensity for thrombotic events and oxygenator membrane failure. ./cache/cord-312748-9v2bmbod.txt ./txt/cord-312748-9v2bmbod.txt
