Genesis of arrhythmia in the course of COVID-19.

Abstract

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with acute respiratory distress syndrome (SARS) this connection and effect has been exacerbated by the new strain of coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) which has rapidly spread across the globe, posing a significant medical challenge [1, 2]. An analysis of various national health records demonstrates that many COVID-19 patients develop cardiac arrhythmias as the disease progresses. Several studies have found that these aberrant rhythms worsen the medical outcome of patients with COVID-19. However, the current medical science is unclear as to how SARS-CoV-2 infection might generate such arrhythmias
