Impacts of COVID-19 on hemostasis: coagulation abnormalities and management perspectives.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has transcended its initial characterization as a respiratory illness, revealing substantial implications for hemostasis and coagulation pathways. COVID-19-associated coagulopathies have emerged as critical determinants of disease severity and prognosis, presenting a multifaceted challenge in clinical management. This paper aims to elucidate the intricate interplay between COVID-19 and hemostasis, delving into the underlying mechanisms of coagulation abnormalities, exploring the spectrum of thrombotic complications, and discussing evolving management strategies. Therapeutic interventions and anticoagulation strategies tailored for managing COVID-19-related coagulopathies form a significant focus, encompassing prophylactic and therapeutic approaches, heparin-based therapies, and individualized treatment paradigms. This paper underscores the imperative for ongoing research endeavors to refine diagnostic modalities, identify novel therapeutic targets, and ascertain long-term sequelae of COVID-19-induced coagulation abnormalities. Ultimately, a comprehensive understanding of the intricate relationship between COVID-19 and hemostasis is pivotal in devising effective management strategies to mitigate thrombotic risks, improve clinical outcomes, and pave the way for tailored interventions in affected individuals.
