Measurements: We captured baseline demographic, pre-hospitalization antiplatelet medication use, and clinical encounter data for all patients who met inclusion criteria. The primary endpoint was peak score on a 6point modified ordinal scale (MOS), which is based on World Health Organization blueprint R&S groups, used to grade severity of illness through clinical outcomes of interest. Scores indicate the following: 1 À COVID-19 infection not requiring hospitalization, 2 À requiring hospitalization but not supplemental oxygen, 3 À hospitalization requiring supplemental oxygen, 4 À hospitalization requiring high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) or non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV), 5 À hospitalization requiring intubation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), 6 À death. Multivariable adjusted partial proportional odds model (PPOM) was performed to examine the association between pre-hospitalization antiplatelet medication use and likelihood of each MOS score. Main Results: Of 762 people admitted with COVID-19, 239 (31.4%) used antiplatelet medications pre-hospitalization while 523 (68.6%) did not. Antiplatelet users were older and had more co-morbidities at baseline. Before adjusting for covariates, patients who used antiplatelet medications pre-hospitalization were more likely than non-users to have peak MOS score 6 (death, OR 1.75, 95% CI 1.21À2.52), peak MOS score 5 (intubation/ECMO or death, OR 1.4, 95% CI 1.00À1.98) and peak MOS score 4 (HFNC, NIPPV, intubation/ECMO or death, OR 1.40, 95% CI 1.01À1.94). On multivariable adjusted PPOM analysis controlling for 13 covariates, there were no longer any significant differences in peak MOS scores between users and non-users. Conclusions: After adjusting for covariates, pre-hospital antiplatelet use was not associated with COVID-19 severity in hospitalized patients.
