COVID-19 and congenital heart disease: an insight of pathophysiology and associated risks

et al. 2020

Objective: We aimed to examine the literature to determine if both paediatric and adult patients diagnosed with congenital heart disease (CHD) are at a higher risk of poor outcomes if they have the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), compared to those without CHD. Methods: A systematic review was executed using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. To identify articles related to COVID-19 and CHD, an extensive literature search was performed on EMBASE, Medline, Scopus, and Global Health databases using keywords and MeSH terms. Results: A total of 12 articles met the inclusion criteria and were included for analysis in this systematic review. Two themes were identified for data extraction: evidence supporting higher risks in CHD patients and evidence against higher risks in CHD patients. After combining the data, there were 99 patients with CHDs out of which 12 required admissions to ICU. Conclusion: This systematic review suggests that CHD may increase the risk of poor outcomes for those with COVID-19, but also highlights the necessity for more research with larger sample sizes in order to make a more justified conclusion, as the majority of papers that were analysed were case series and case reports. Future research should aim to quantify the risks if possible whilst accounting for various confounding factors such as age and treatment history.

“…The global epidemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has infected millions of people worldwide (1). COVID-19 disease has clinical manifestation due to new corona virus and is often associated with lung involvement that may lead to systemic inflammation, pneumonia and in the severe form of disease, multi-organ damage and acute respiratory distress syndrome.…”

“…It is important to mention that the association of COVID-19 with heart disease can both increase the risk of infection and worsen the prognosis. In this regard, the ECG can be used as an essential tool for monitoring of cardiac condition and understanding cardiovascular manifestations of COVID-19 (1). However, manifestations of the disease during acute phase and its effects on ECG are not well defined yet (9).…”

Objective: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infection which can present itself by the involvement of various organs, but the most common manifestations are respiratory symptoms, fever and dyspnea with a high mortality rate. In order to study the prognosis of patients and also to determine the treatment plan, we need non-invasive methods which can be easily used in the triage of patients. In this study, we investigated the diagnostic value of electrocardiographic (ECG) changes and troponin levels in patients with this disease. Methods: This is a descriptive study. Confirmed COVID-19 patients participated in the present study. Data were collected by taking history and referring to medical records. We analyzed data by using chi square, t test and logistic regression through SPSS software version 22. Results: One hundred and five patients with COVID-19 disease were examined. Most patients were men (53.3%) and the mean age was 54.53 years. The most common underlying diseases were hypertension and diabetes mellitus. Ninety-five patients had abnormal electrocardiography including eleven with long QT; seven with arrhythmia; 78 with sinus tachycardia; 7 with hemi-block; 1 with hemi-block and first degree atrioventricular block; 4 with abnormal axis and 28 with ischemic changes. Eleven patients (10.5%) had positive troponin level, whose length of hospital stay was higher (12.73 vs. 12.07 days). Furthermore, their mean length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay was also higher. In addition, among the troponin-positive group, 100% had abnormal electrocardiography. Conclusion: The findings of the present study showed that ECG abnormalities and troponin levels could provide good information about the prognosis of patients. Moreover, it seems that ECG changes in COVID-19 patients, whether indicative of underlying heart disease or resulted from infection, can affect the prognosis of patients. Therefore, considering ECG findings and troponin levels can help select patients at a higher risk for triage.

First reported case of unrepaired tetralogy of Fallot complicated with coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19)

Abstract: The incidence of novel coronavirus disease-19 (nCoV-19) and its associated complications is higher in high-risk groups. In this article, we explain the symptoms and course of the disease and the treatment for an adult patient with CHD who has been infected with novel nCoV-19.
