Und wir empfehlen allen Kollegen in Praxis und Klinik die regelmäßige Thromboseprophylaxe für alle (!) Covid-19 – Infizierten über den gesamten Zeitraum der Infektion, unabhängig von Alter und Geschlecht! Diese Empfehlung sollte so lange gelten, bis wir den Mechanismus der Thrombose – / Embolieentstehung bei COVID-19 kennen.
We recommend that all colleagues in private practice and clinics regularly administer thrombosis prophylaxis to all (!) COVID-19 patients throughout the entire period of infection, regardless of age and gender! This recommendation should remain in place until we understand the mechanism of thrombosis/embolism formation in COVID-19.

Saphenion®: Covid-19 and varicose

It is very important to us – as vascular surgeons – to point out that Covid-19 is not the first virus with these significant thromboembolic – sometimes fatal – side effects. There are other risk factors! And in any case, this includes the varicose veins, which are generally not considered so much from a disease perspective. From the point of view of the viral complication, these represent an easy point of attack and are the cause of very rapid thrombosis and embolism.
