A Case of COVID-19-Induced Delayed-Onset Myocarditis.

BACKGROUND COVID-19 is a pandemic caused by a coronavirus that has only recently been discovered. The disorder is characterized by persistent respiratory system malfunction, which can range from modest difficulty breathing to potentially lethal complications such as acute respiratory distress syndrome. Additional organs are affected as a result of its presence. An adverse impact of COVID-19 infection is myocarditis, which is a condition that affects the heart muscle. CASE REPORT We describe the case of a 38-year-old woman who was hospitalized at University Medical Center Ho Chi Minh City following a 15-day fever, a 3-day bout of dyspnea, and a positive nasal PCR SAR-CoV-2 test. The Lake Louise criteria were used to determine that the patient had a high probability of having myocarditis. She was then treated with oxygen treatment, vasoconstrictor medicines, inotropic therapy, and cornerstone heart failure medications, and was discharged 2 weeks later after a complete recovery. CONCLUSIONS Myocarditis has been identified as a cause of death in COVID-19, although it is not known how common the ailment is in the general population. Early detection and complete treatment, which should include support for the cardiovascular system, are consequently critical for successful outcomes. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the cardiovascular system (cardiac MRI) is the most important noninvasive method for diagnosing myocarditis.
