Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This is a retrospective/prospective, cohort, non-interventional observational study. This means that all patients with documented COVID and HM diagnosed between February 2020 and study initiation will compose the retrospective part, while those diagnosed after study approval will enter prospective part. The total duration of the study will be 12 months. The study population will must be older than 18 years of age with HM and SARS-CoV-2 infection. All patients with documented SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID) and history or active hematological malignancies, who refer to any Hematological Unit will be included.

- measure
- To evaluate mortality.
- timeFrame
- At 2 months from study initiation
- description
- The percentage of HM patients with COVID-19 who died.
- measure
- To evaluate potential predictive biochemical parameters of mortality.
- timeFrame
- At 2 months from study initiation
- description
- We will assess the correlation between some biochemical parameters at diagnosis of COVID (i.e. hemoglobin, platelets, lymphocytes, clotting tests, CRP), each on the basis of its specific unit of measure, and mortality.
- measure
- To evaluate potential predictive HM-related parameters of mortality.
- timeFrame
- At 2 months from study initiation
- description
- We will assess the correlation between HM-related parameters at diagnosis of COVID \[i.e. disease type (leukemia, lymphomas, myeloma), disease status (remission / stable / progression), therapy status (on / off therapy)\] and mortality.
