| Popis: | Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with cardiac injury and overt myocardial dysfunction. However, whether COVID-19 is associated with subclinical myocardial dysfunction is unknown. Methods: We evaluated patients hospitalized for COVID-19 referred for transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), between March 17 and May 22, 2020, with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50%. Controls in a 1:1 ratio were selected from patients receiving TTE during the same month. Global longitudinal strain (GLS) was used to assess the association of COVID-19 and subclinical myocardial disease. Results: Among 99 patients (49 cases, 50 controls), average GLS was significantly reduced in cases vs. controls (mean ± SD, -14.8 ± 4.0% vs. -21.1 ± 4.0%, p < 0.0001). A total of 82.8% of cases vs. 7.1% of controls had an average GLS below normal (> 18%; p < 0.0001), which persisted despite multivariable adjustment ( Table ). Among COVID-19 patients with a prior TTE, absolute average GLS decreased 3.2% (p = 0.008) despite no change in LVEF (p = 0.41). Average GLS was reduced in non-survivors compared with survivors (p = 0.04), though only septal wall thickness (p = 0.03) was associated with in-hospital mortality on multivariable analysis. Conclusions: Among hospitalized patients receiving TTE, COVID-19 is independently associated with subclinical left ventricular systolic dysfunction in the vast majority of patients, and subclinical LV dysfunction is associated with survival. The clinical implications of these findings should be evaluated in future longitudinal multicenter studies. |
