Abstract

Woman admitted for COVID-19 respiratory failure requiring intubation, renal failure and rising bilirubin, requiring CVVHD. Due to dropping hemoglobin and platelets, TTP was suspected and empiric plasma exchange initiated. Platelets normalized; she improved; ADAMTS13 level resulted 50.7%, indicating possible benefit of plasma exchange for COVID19 thrombotic microangiopathy despite normal ADAMTS13.
