Long COVID and Cardiovascular Health

Long COVID, a condition where symptoms persist long after the acute phase of a COVID-19 infection, has been associated with various cardiovascular complications. Patients with long COVID often experience symptoms such as fatigue, chest pain, palpitations, and shortness of breath, which can be linked to heart-related issues. Research indicates that the virus can cause inflammation in the heart muscle (myocarditis), blood vessels (vasculitis), and even contribute to blood clot formation, increasing the risk of heart attacks, strokes, or pulmonary embolism.

Moreover, long COVID can exacerbate underlying cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, and arrhythmias, particularly in those with preexisting heart conditions. The lingering effects of the virus on the autonomic nervous system can also lead to dysregulation of heart rate and blood pressure.

As more is understood about long COVID, targeted therapies to manage cardiovascular symptoms are being developed. Early intervention, monitoring, and management of cardiovascular risks in long COVID patients are essential to reduce the impact on heart health.
