[HTML][HTML] COVID‐19 patients exhibit reduced procoagulant platelet responses
Background Emerging evidence implicates dysfunctional platelet responses in thrombotic
complications in COVID‐19 patients. Platelets are important players in inflammation‐
induced thrombosis. In particular, procoagulant platelets support thrombin generation and
mediate thromboinflammation. Objectives To examine if procoagulant platelet formation is
altered in COVID‐19 patients and if procoagulant platelets contribute to pulmonary
thrombosis. Patients/Methods Healthy donors and COVID‐19 patients were recruited from …
