Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted weaknesses in health systems around the world. At the beginning of the pandemic, several authors observed non-respiratory complications in patients of different ages and races, which drew attention to the nature of the novel coronavirus infection, which was hardly restricted to the respiratory tract. Evidence has shown that the pathophysiology of the virus is closely related to coagulation disorders, which favors the emergence of thrombotic events. The aim of this article is to highlight the epidemiological experience of a tertiary public hospital during the first year of the pandemic and the vascular complications observed. The study found that complications were more frequent in older patients, but there was no significant difference between race or gender. We conclude that understanding the behavior of COVID-19, not just the respiratory behavior, is fundamental, as vascular complications are real and need to be understood through new and extensive studies.
