Background: The study assessed Global longitudinal strain imaging (GLS) to detect subtle myocardial dysfunction among patients clinically recovered from COVID-19. Methods: All patients (n = 101 76 % males, mean age 55.45 ± 11.14 years), and controls (n = 30), underwent clinical assessment and echocardiography, including GLS assessment. Results: The prevalence of diabetes mellitus, hypertension and dyslipidemia was comparable amongst patients and controls. The average GLS was significantly lesser in post COVID patients (−16.21 ± 1.96 vs −18.49 ± 1.64 respectively, p = 0.004) and significantly higher proportion of post COVID patients had GLS > -18 % (43 % vs 22.58 % respectively, p = 0.001) as compared to controls. The RV free wall longitudinal strain (RVFLS) was also lower in the patient group (22.35 ± 4.69 vs 24.19 ± 4.11, p = 0.004) and 21.7 % post COVID-19 patients had pathological RV FWLS (> −20 %) vs controls (6.6 %).Average GLS was significantly lesser in severe post COVID patients (viz −14.25 ± 1.92 vs −16.63 ± 1.61 vs −17.63 ± 1.91, p |
