OBJECTIVE: the study's objective was to determine impact of COVID-19 on the prognosis of pulmonary embolism.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: An analytical multicenter cross-sectional study with retrospective data collection was carried out in three university hospitals and a private clinic in Ouagadougou from March, 2020 to July 2021. It included consecutive patients hospitalized for PE confirmed on chest CT angiography or by the association an acute cor pulmonale on echocardiography-Doppler with deep vein thrombosis on venous ultrasound-Doppler of the lower limbs and having carried out a COVID-19 test (RT-PCR or rapid diagnostic test). Control cases consisted of all COVID-19 negative PE cases. Data comparison was carried out using the Epi info 7 software. A univariate then multivariate analysis allowed the comparison of the prognosis of the two subpopulations. The significance level retained was p < 0.05.

RESULTS: 96 patients with COVID-19+ and 70 COVID-19- PE were included. The prevalence of PE in patients hospitalized for COVID-19 was 7.05%. The average patient age was 61.5±17 years for COVID-19+ patients and 49.6±15.9 years for COVID-19- patients. Pulmonary condensation syndrome (p=0.007), desaturation (p=0.0003) and respiratory distress syndrome (p=0.006) were more common in COVID-19+ patients. The hospital death rate was 27.1% in COVID-19+ patients and 10% in COVID-19- patients (p=0.0024). Age > 65 years and COVID-19 pneumonia were the independent factors of death.

CONCLUSION: COVID-19 is associated with clinical severity and excess mortality in patients with pulmonary embolism.
