Correction to: Deep Vein Thrombosis in Hospitalized Patients With COVID-19 in Wuhan, China: Prevalence, Risk Factors, and Outcome
Unknown authors
Abstract
it has come to the authors' attention that several corrections are needed:1.The sentence "There was no statistically significant difference between the DVT and non-DVT groups (22 [33.3%] vs 31[40.3%];P = 0.393)."should be changed to "There was no statistically significant difference of DVT prophylaxis between the DVT and non-DVT groups (22 [33.3%] versus 31 [40.3%];P=0.393)." 2. The sentence "and more patients with DVT had a higher right ventricular myocardial performance index (0.45 ± 0.10 vs 0.38 ± 0.13; P = 0.011)" should be changed to "and patients with DVT had a higher right ventricular myocardial performance index than patients without DVT (0.45±0.10 versus 0.38±0.13;P=0.011)." 3. The sentence "Patients with DVT had a worse prognosis than patients without DVT, including more admissions to the ICU (12 [18.2] vs 3 [3.9];P = 0.005), fewer discharges (32 [48.5] vs 60 [77.9];P < 0.001), and more deaths (23 [34.8] vs 9 [11.7];P = 0.001)."should be changed to "Patients with DVT had a worse prognosis than patients without DVT, including more admissions to the ICU (12 [18.2%] versus 3 [3.9%];P=0.005), fewer discharges (32 [48.5%] versus 60 [77.9%];P<0.001), and more deaths (23 [34.8%] versus 9 [11.7%];P=0.001). The sentence "… a high prevalence of DVT and an association between DVT andCURB-65 scores (3-5), Padua scores, and D-dimer levels in hospitalized patients with COVID-19" should be changed to "a high prevalence of DVT on ultrasound scans and an association between DVT and CURB-65 score 3 to 5, Padua prediction score ≥4, and D-dimer >1.0 in hospitalized patients with COVID-19".5.The sentence "and series of patients in ICUs (without COVID19) reported from China" should be changed to "and series of patients in ICUs (without COVID-19) reported from China".6.The sentence "We recorded all levels of DVTs and found that 43 (65%) patients had thromboses only in the distal intramuscular veins" should be changed to "We recorded all levels of DVTs and found that 43 (65.2%)patients had thromboses only in the distal intramuscular veins".7. The sentence "We also found that 54/87 (88.5%) of patients with a D-dimer…", needs to be change into "We also found that 54/87 (62.1%) of patients with a D-dimer…" 8. Figure 1 has been updated to reflect these clarifications.
