Effect of troponin I and coagulation parameters on mortality in COVID-19 patients

Effect of troponin I and coagulation parameters on mortality in COVID-19 patients

Objective: Our aim is to determine the levels of troponin-I and some coagulation markers (D-dimer, fibrinogen and International Normalized Ratio (INR)) in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients and to investigate the effects of these markers on mortality. Patients and Methods: It is planned as a descriptive, cross-sectional and analytical study. The study was conducted by retrospectively scanning the files of COVID-19 patients who applied to Inonu University Turgut Ozal Medical Center between 01.03.2020 and 31.12.2020. Levels of cardiac troponin I markers and coagulation parameters (D-dimer, fibrinogen and INR) were detected. Results: The results of a total of 1858 patients were obtained. One thousand, three hundred and twenty-six patients with only troponin I and D-dimer results (Group 1), 606 patients with only troponin I and fibrinogen results (Group 2), and 1308 patients with only troponin I and INR results (Group 3) were included. Troponin I levels were significantly higher in all patients who died. 96.6% of the patients with high D-dimer levels died in Group 1, 85.5% of the patients with high fibrinogen levels died in Group 2 and 77.3 % of the patients with high INR levels died in Group 3. Conclusion: Measurements of troponin-I and coagulation markers such as D-dimer, fibrinogen and INR can help predict clinical severity and mortality in COVID-19 patients.
