Cardiac Arrhythmia in Patients After Coronavirus Infection: Features of the Course and Therapy

Abstract

This paper presents data on the peculiarities of the course and treatment of rhythm disturbances in patients who have suffered a coronavirus infection in the cardiology department of the CHM "KB RZD-Medicine" in Tula. Among all patients who underwent therapy in a specialized cardiology department for various kinds of arrhythmias for the period from 2020 to 2022, 72% of rhythm disturbances occurred after COVID-19.
 The most common arrhythmic consequences of coronavirus infection are supraventricular and ventricular extrasystole, paroxysmal form of supraventricular tachycardia and atrial fibrillation. Based on the analysis of the data obtained by us, it was revealed that complex treatment with the use of beta-blockers, cardioprotectors, sedatives, antiarrhythmic agents of class I and III has the greatest effectiveness.
