Conditions

Arrhythmia, SARS-CoV-2 Infection

Keywords

COVID-19, ECG, Torsade de pointe, QT interval

Brief summary

Cardiac involvement has been described in Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome - Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Although there are no approved drugs to prevent or treat SARS-CoV-2 infection at present time, several medications used have the potential to increase QT interval and eventually provoke torsades de pointe. The investigators therefore create a study that include all patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection having an electrocardiogram (ECG). The investigators evaluate the percentage of patients with ECG abnormalities, describe the abnormalities and evaluate the occurrence of syncope, ventricular arrhythmia and corrected QT (cQT) interval modification in patients receiving treatment.

Detailed description

In patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, the investigators analyze baseline ECG as well as follow-up ECG. Patients followed by Bordeaux University Hospital for COVID-19 can be included. ECG are digitized in the computerized patient file (DxCARE) for further analysis.
