Background Studies have shown an increased risk of cardiac disease following COVID-19, but how it compares to pneumonia of other etiologies is unclear. Aims To determine the incidence and HRs of cardiac disease in patients hospitalised with COVID-19 compared with other viral or bacterial pneumonias.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) formally proclaimed COVID-19, the illness spread by a zoonotic SARS-CoV-2, as a pandemic in March 2020, after it had started to spread in late 2019. And, addressing myocardial infarction, recent studies have shown that 1-4% of Athletes untimely die due to myocarditis caused by COVID-19.

I’m a cardiologist, and the first disconnect that became glaringly obvious very quickly was the impact COVID was having on the heart. As I walked through COVID rooms in the Spring of 2020 trying to hold my breath, I waited for a COVID cardiac tsunami. There never was a cardiac tsunami from COVID. But it got worse.

BackgroundPatients hospitalized with COVID19 from socioeconomically vulnerable communities are at risk for inhospital cardiovascular events. ConclusionsAmong survivors of COVID19 hospitalization, patientlevel social vulnerability was associated with cardiovascular events, explained by increased comorbidities.

This is a 30-something healthy patient presented with COVID pneumonia who presented to the ED. An elevated troponin in a COVID patient confers about 4x the risk of mortality than a normal one. Beware elevated troponins in COVID patients. He was moderately hypoxic. There is minimal, probably normal STE in V2-V6. 3–8 Shi et al.

However, researchers said the drug may be helpful in reducing heart failure risks, including hospitalization, following a heart attack. To have a 25% to 30% reduction in heart failure hospitalizations is pretty clinically meaningful, but if you put it together with all-cause mortality, it was not a positive study for our primary endpoint.”

While composite of death and heart failure hospitalizations was not significantly reduced, empagliflozin may help reduce heart failure risks after a heart attack, according to results from the EMPACT-MI trial presented on day one of the American College of Cardiology Scientific Sessions, ACC.24, 24, being held in Atlanta, GA.

We could also see that unvaccinated people were at higher risk than vaccinated people.

The evaluation criteria included OTDT, time from admission to PCI-mediated reperfusion, in-hospital mortality, and predictors of time delays.ResultsOur study revealed a significant increases in OTDT (median 3h; IQR 1.512.0 p=0.025), in the COVID-19 pandemic group of STEMI patients, compared to the pre-pandemic subset.
