Stress Echocardiography in Patients Recovery From Mild COVID-19 Illness

Miguel Ayala León30 enrolled

Overview

With the appearance of the new SARS-COV2 virus, additional challenges are being imposed on the medical community after the resolution of acute COVID-19 illness, resulting in specific pathophysiologic mechanisms that while acutely damage the lung parenchyma might chronically impact the cardiopulmonary system. This study aims to investigate changes after mild COVID-19 illness in echocardiographic indices at rest and stress.

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Enrollment

Conditions

Echocardiography, Stress COVID-19 Hypertension, Pulmonary

Interventions

echocardiogram 2DDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

The patient is accelerating against a workload that gradually increases at a constant rate during the exercise, images will be obtained by echocardiography. The patient begins with 25 Watts with increments of 25 Watts every 3 minutes, continuing the exercise until significant electrocardiographic changes occur or the patient starts with symptoms.
