Brief Summary

COVID-19 is associated with acute pulmonary and cardiac injury. To better understand the degree and severity of cardiopulmonary injury as well as short and long-term sequelae of COVID-19 infection, this study will perform longitudinal study in patients who had recent known diagnosis of COVID-19.

Detailed Description

The objectives for this study include providing structural and function information about lung and heart using chest imaging, MRI, Echo, Spirometry, and blood markers in order to assess severity of cardiopulmonary injury and short- and long-term sequelae of COVID-19 infection as well as assess indicators of mental health and quality of life.

Any individual who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded from participation to the MRI or x-ray portion of the study:

  • Participants who are pregnant or currently trying to get pregnant
  • Participants unable to comply with any portion of the protocol (i.e. removing metals prior to entering the MRI scan room) or who have contraindications to MRI scanning (i.e., non-MRI-conditional pacemakers/defibrillators, pregnancy, ferromagnetic implants such as aneurysm clips, surgical clips, prostheses, artificial hearts, valves with steel parts, metal fragments, shrapnel, tattoos near the eye, or steel implants)
  • Persistent symptoms related to COVID-19 (in which case the patient may be re-screened later) As is done for all patients undergoing clinical MRI in our department, each patient will be screened for contraindications to MRI with a routine questionnaire prior to scanning.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Level of Inflammatory MarkersUp to 12 months

Inflammatory markers include D-dimer, ferritin, and CRP measurements

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Score on St. George's Shortness of Breath Questionnaire (SGSQ)Up to 12 months

Disease-specific instrument designed to measure impact on overall health, daily life, and perceived well-being in patients with obstructive airways disease. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more limitations.

Score on Short Form Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI-12)Up to 12 months

Short form ZBI-12 validated as screening tool in advanced illness including dementia and cancer. Total ZBI-12 score: summation of 12 items (0 to 4 points per item, total score range 0 to 48). The higher the score, the higher the burden.
