Objective: The aim: To show the relationship between these inflammatory factors (ESR, CRP) and D-Dimer level in COVID-19.
Patients and methods: Material and methods: This study was started in Al-Mawani teaching hospital in which 74 patient from both genders was included, from August to October 2020. Demographic data, inflammatory marker were taken as the same day of admission to the hospital.
Results: Results: D-Dimer show a moderate positive correlation with ESR, CRP (r = 0.354, p = 0.002; r = 0.457, p = <0.05, respectively), while demographical data show no significant relationship.
Conclusion: Conclusion: In SARS-CoV-2 infection, ESR and CRP levels are moderately positively correlated with D-Dimer, and their increasing levels can be used to predict the synchronized rose of D-Dimer after exclusion the possibility of another inflammatory process that may confound the results.
