Title: COVIDâ€19 induced bradyarrhythmia and relative bradycardia: An overview Cord-id: u0d7h3os Document date: 2021_6_14

Snippet: Novel coronavirus 2019 (COVIDâ€19) has been the focus of the medical community since its emergence in December 2019 and has already infected more than 100 million patients globally. Primarily described to cause a respiratory illness, COVIDâ€19 has been found to affect almost every organ system. Bradycardia is a newly recognized ramification of COVIDâ€19 that still has unknown prognostic value. Studies have shown an increase in the incidence of arrhythmias, cardiomyopathies, myocarditis, acute
Document: Novel coronavirus 2019 (COVIDâ€19) has been the focus of the medical community since its emergence in December 2019 and has already infected more than 100 million patients globally. Primarily described to cause a respiratory illness, COVIDâ€19 has been found to affect almost every organ system. Bradycardia is a newly recognized ramification of COVIDâ€19 that still has unknown prognostic value. Studies have shown an increase in the incidence of arrhythmias, cardiomyopathies, myocarditis, acute coronary syndromes, and coagulopathies in infected patients as well as an increased risk of mortality in patients with preexisting cardiovascular disease. While the pathogenesis of bradycardia in COVIDâ€19 may be multifactorial, clinicians should be aware of the mechanism by which COVIDâ€19 affects the cardiovascular system and the medication side effects which are used in the treatment algorithm of this deadly virus. There has yet to be a comprehensive review analyzing bradyarrhythmia and relative bradycardia in COVIDâ€19 infected patients. We aim to provide a literature review including the epidemiology, pathogenesis, and management of COVIDâ€19 induced bradyarrhythmia.
