This patient was admitted to the ICU with COVID pneumonia a few weeks ago and due to a very high D-dimer level, empiric anticoagulation was initiated. The night prior to extubation, the patient's oxygen saturation plummeted, fresh blood appeared in the ventilator tubing, and the second X-ray was obtained.
