Registration Number
NCT04312464
Lead Sponsor
Wuhan Union Hospital, China
Brief Summary

This study aims to investigate the clinical characteristics, the incidence of myocardial injury, and the influence of myocardial injury on the prognosis in COVID-19 patients. There is no additional examination and treatment for this project.

Detailed Description

The epidemic of the COVID-19 has expanded from Wuhan through out China, and is being exported to a growing number of countries. Recently, investigators have revealed that acute myocardial injury is existed in 7.2% patients with COVID-19, and this proportion in patients admitted to the ICU (22.2%) is higher than patients not treated in the ICU (2.0%). Thus, cardiac troponin I (cTNI), the biomarker of cardiac injury, might be a clinical predictor of COVID-19 patient outcomes. This study aims to investigate the clinical characteristics, the incidence of myocardial injury, and the influence of myocardial injury on the prognosis in COVID-19 patients.
