Abstract
Cardiovascular complications in COVID-19 include deep vein thrombosis, stroke, angina, myocardial
infarction, heart failure and cardiogenic shock.ECG changes including sinus tachycardia, sinus
bradycardia and atrial brillation . Incidence of cardiovascular complications is directly linked to severity of disease which in
turn correlate with inammatory markers including CRP, LDH, Ferritin, D Dimer and IL-6. Raised Inammatory markers also
suggest poor outcome of patients. Therefore it is advisable to do inammatory markers in admitted patients for management.
Followup study at 3 and 6 months revealed new onset cardiovascular complications while no new complications were
documented at 12months follow up.Thus regular health checkup is recommended post COVID infections for atleast 6months.
