The main complications that were used to formulate this study are Deep Venous Thrombosis (DVT), Stroke, Pulmonary Embolism, Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC), Myocardial Infarction (MI), anosmia, and pneumonia. The data was extracted from the PubMed database on March 20, 2021at 03:20 PM, PST with the period of 2020 to March 20, 2021. We used Biblioshiny, VOSviewer, and MS Excel software to analyze data and found 2375 published documents. The results revealed that Pneumonia and COVID-19 was the top topic out of 2375 published documents, journal articles as the top type, and the top year was 2020. Similarly, study findings also asserted that Guaraldi, Giovanni was the top author, China was a top country, COVID-19 top keyword, and Stroke was the top source of published documents. Further, the results were illustrated in tables and figures to show the trend of the published document.
