A case of COVID‐19 with pernio‐like skin lesions and increased red blood cell distribution width

Heparin resistance has been observed in patients with active severe COVID‐19 infection. The red blood cell distribution (RDW), a component of the complete blood count that reflects cellular volume variation, has been shown to be associated with elevated risk for morbidity and mortality in a wide ran...

Sumario:Heparin resistance has been observed in patients with active severe COVID‐19 infection. The red blood cell distribution (RDW), a component of the complete blood count that reflects cellular volume variation, has been shown to be associated with elevated risk for morbidity and mortality in a wide range of diseases. Cutaneous manifestations, RDW, and levels of LD and D‐dimer might be useful biomarkers in triage of patients with COVID‐19.
