A study to be presented at the American College of Cardiology’s Annual Scientific Session “Together With the World Congress of Cardiology” has found that long COVID, which is characterized by lasting symptoms after COVID-19 infection, can more than double a person’s likelihood of developing cardiovascular issues.Experiencing lasting symptoms months after catching, also known as long COVID, was found to more than double a person’s likelihood of developing cardiovascular issues.
Researchers found consistent evidence that individuals with long COVID were significantly more likely than those who never had COVID-19 to experience symptoms associated with heart problems such as chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, and fatigue, and more likely to show markers of heart disease or elevated cardiovascular risk in medical imaging and diagnostic tests.
GRRSP researchers systematically screened a total of 982 studies published between 2020-2022 and selected 74 studies for a thorough review. Of these, they identified 11 studies that included data on cardiovascular outcomes among people with long COVID as well as a control group of participants who never had COVID-19. Of more than 5.8 million participants included across the 11 studies, almost 450,000 experienced cardiac complications.
There is no single definition for long COVID. For this study, researchers defined long COVID as symptoms persisting for at least four weeks and occurring at least two months after the initial COVID-19 infection. Patients with preexisting cardiovascular disease were included in the samples, but their symptoms were only counted as cardiovascular complications of long COVID if they emerged after the COVID-19 infection.
