Coronavirus Patients Likely to Develop New Heart Problems post COVID-19, claims reports!

Dr. Valentina Puntmann of University Hospital Frankfurt told Reuters that the heart condition of few patients was "in serious trouble as a part of COVID-19 disease." 

“Among 100 patients ages 45 to 53, 'considerable majority’ - 78 - had inflammation in the heart muscle and lining. Sixty-seven had recovered at home while 33 had required hospitalization. Half of the former patients were more than two months out since their diagnosis at the time of the MRI. Thirty-six patients reported ongoing shortness of breath and general exhaustion, and 71 had blood markers of heart muscle damage,” Reuters reported.

According to Puntmann, few patients who recovered, have reported problems related to irregularities in heart pumping and displayed other risk factors related to heart failure. 

"While we do not have direct evidence for late consequences yet, such as the development of heart failure ... it is quite possible that in a few years, this burden will be enormous based on what we have learned from other viral conditions that similarly affect the heart," she said.
