Researchers report two unusual COVID-19-related arrhythmic cases MDPIOpenAccess UniPadova covid coronavirus COVID19 arrhythmic
By Bhavana KunkalikarFeb 8 2023Reviewed by Danielle Ellis, B.Sc. In a recent study published in COVID, researchers explored the association between cardiac arrhythmias in children and coronavirus disease 2019 infection.
The present study presented two COVID-19-associated arrhythmia cases reported between March 2020 and October 2021. The nasopharyngeal swab collected pre-admission was COVID-19-positive, although all other blood tests, including inflammatory testing and troponin, were negative. Furthermore, SARS-CoV-2 serology revealed a high immunoglobulin -M antibody titer. Even though a few paroxysms of tachycardia were still detected in the subsequent four days, continuous intravenous amiodarone treatment was beneficial.
At the commencement of symptoms, the device's remote control revealed atrial flutter onset two days prior. It was noted that this supraventricular tachyarrhythmia had never been recognized during prior periodic post-meridiem controls via telemedicine. The patient arrived at the emergency department with a stable hemodynamic condition and no symptoms, while the ECG revealed an atrial flutter 2:1 at a 120 bpm heart rate.
