New ASH Webinar: “COVID-19 and

Thrombosis”

Thursday, June 25
6:00 p.m. Eastern time

Register.

New evidence is emerging daily that COVID-19 isn’t just a respiratory disease, it is
a blood disease. Data are emerging that COVID-19 infection can result in
coagulopathy in severely ill patients, and there are reports of an increased risk of
clinical and subclinical thrombosis in the setting of severe COVID-19 disease with
multiple reports citing an increased incidence of thrombosis, especially venous
thromboembolism.

The rapid onslaught of cases, the severity of critical illness and complications, and
the desire to do something have resulted in a significant debate about the
appropriate anticoagulant approach to preventing both macrovascular and
microvascular thrombosis at a time when no data are available to inform decisions
and guide clinical care.

Register and join us onThursday, June 25, 2020, at 6:00 p.m. Eastern time to
learn about the crucial controversies in this area, using a case-based format to
highlight these issues and discuss the known data and pros and cons of empiric
treatments. We anticipate significant interest in this webinar, so we encourage you
to register in advance. We will also share the webinar recording with those who
register.
