BackgroundDuring the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic it was speculated that the virus might be associated with a persistent increase of cardiovascular risk. The present study compares pre- and post-pandemic hospital admission rates for hypertension and coronary artery disease.MethodsSystematic multicentric retrospective cohort analysis of 57.795 hospital admissions in an urban region in Germany during two different periods (pre-pandemic 01–06/2019 vs. post-pandemic era 01–06/2023). Information on hospital admissions for arterial hypertension, chronic coronary syndrome, unstable angina pectoris and acute myocardial infarction were extracted from the hospitals data systems. Additionally, six comorbidities and performed coronary interventions were monitored.ResultsCompared to the pre-pandemic era, there was no increase in hospitalizations for arterial hypertension (516 vs. 483, −6.8%, p = 0.07) or myocardial infarction (487 vs. 349, −23.8%, p |
