НОВАЯ КОРОНАВИРУСНАЯ ИНФЕКЦИЯ COVID-19 И ОСТРЫЙ ИНФАРКТ МИОКАРДА: КЛИНИЧЕСКИЙ СЛУЧАЙ

Abstract

According to the definition of the World Health Organization, the new coronavirus infection SARS-CoV-2, despite a clear decline in the spread, still remains a «global emergency of international importance». COVID-19 strains are constantly mutating and can cause diseases with a non-standard clinical picture and severity of the course. The relevance of the topic under study is also due to the fact that both in Russia and globally, severe forms of NCVI are noted primarily in comorbid patients. Conditions that are most often associated with an unfavorable prognosis include cardiovascular diseases (CVD), diabetes mellitus (DM), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), liver and kidney diseases. Russian and foreign studies have shown that the presence of concomitant diseases and late contact with medical institutions are the most common causes of death in cases of novel coronavirus infection SARS-CoV-2. This article presents a clinical case of a severe course of COVID-19 with the development of complications in the form of acute myocardial infarction with a fatal outcome in a patient who was at special risk: type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension, age (over 65 years), male. Despite the targeted specific treatment, active prevention of thromboembolic complications, oxygen therapy, on the 7th day of stay in the intensive care unit, the patient developed an acute myocardial infarction. This clinical case confirms the risk and pathogenetic relationship between a severe COVID-19 and significant cardiovascular complications in comorbid patients.
