Incidence and risk factors of myocarditis in hospitalized patients with COVID‐19

Abstract: Myocarditis as cardiac involvement in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)infection is well known. Real-world data about incidence in hospitalized COVID-19patients and risk factors for myocarditis in COVID-19-patients are sparse. We used the German nationwide inpatient sample to analyze all hospitalized patients with confirmed COVID-19-diagnosis in Germany in 2020 and stratified them for myocarditis. Overall, 176 137 hospitalizations (52.3% males, 53.6% aged ≥70 years) with confirmed COVID-19-infection were cod… Show more

“…Additionally, it was linked to a 2.8-fold increase in the occurrence of venous thromboembolism. Factors such as age below 70 years, male sex, coronary artery disease, heart failure, pneumonia, and multisystemic inflammatory COVID-19 infection were independently associated with myocarditis in COVID-19 patients (17). These findings suggest that the presence of COVID-19 in patients with myocarditis may contribute to a poorer prognosis.…”

“…[3][4][5] Notably, the risk of stroke appears to be notably elevated in patients who have experienced severe COVID-19. 4,6 However, existing studies have certain limitations that warrant further exploration. First, previous investigations have predominantly focused on examining the association between COVID-19 and stroke, with the causal relationship pertaining to each stroke subtype, including ischemic stroke (IS), large-artery atherosclerotic stroke (LAS), cardioembolic stroke (CES), and small-vessel stroke (SVS), remaining unknown.…”

“…There are significant obstacles to telehealth, but it is unclear how these obstacles affect the urban safety net, primary care clinicians, and their patients. Patient burden, communication and technological obstacles, pain management, opioid abuse, and medical complexity should all be taken into account when deciding whether to maintain or increase telemedicine (14) (17). The role of telehealth in primary care for the management of chronic pain and palliative care is not well defined in literature and strongly necessitates further research to elaborately study the impact of telehealth especially post-COVID-19 era as the present literature is scarce and limited mostly to pandemic times.…”
