A recent study published in the journal Blood Advances found elevated levels of blood clotting markers in more than one in two (55%) people with long COVID who also had abnormal exercise testing results.
Individuals with elevated blood clotting marker levels were four times more likely to show persistent deficits in exercise capacity.
Recent studies have shown that individuals with long COVID are more likely to develop small clotsTrusted Source in blood capillaries and show abnormalities in the levels of factors that promote blood clotting. Such micro clots can interfere with the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the body and potentially result in long COVID symptoms such as fatigue.
