Objective: To determine if elevated D-Dimer values are a risk factor for a Severe Covid 19 infection compared to normal D-Dimer values in patients hospitalized for Covid 19. Material and methods: To carry out this study, an observational, analytical, retrospective design of Cases and controls was used, using as a study population those patients infected with Covid 19, who were hospitalized at Hospital III José Cayetano Heredia in the region. Piura between March 2020 and December 2020. The unit of analysis was the medical records of said health center, the cases were those patients who developed an unfavorable evolution of the covid 19 infection and our controls were those patients who had a mild disease, obtaining 28 cases and 56 controls, matched by age, sex and presence of obesity. A data collection form validated by experts was used. After obtaining the data, they were analyzed using the statistical program Stata Version 1.6. Results: High levels of ferritin (Co p=0.030) and CRP (Coefficient= +0.002, CI95%= +0.001 +0.003; p=<0.001) had a statistically significant association for an unfavorable evolution of covid 19 infection. Likewise, belonging to a rural area (OR=2.75 p=<0.001) and the greater number of days in hospital (Coefficient = +0.051, CI95%= +0.01 +0.09; p=0.016) was significantly associated with severe Covid 19 infection. High levels of D-dimer had no significant association. Conclusions: Coming from a rural area, a greater number of days in hospital, and serum levels of Ferritin and CRP were risk factors for severe infection by Covid 19. High values of D-dimer were not a risk factor for infection. Serious for Covid 19.
