Abstract

Myocarditis is an uncommon diagnosis that must be considered in young patients with acute myocardial dysfunction. Several infectious agents have been noted as causes of acute myocarditis; however, most cases are idiopathic in nature. This diagnosis may go unrecognized initially in patients presenting with atypical symptoms. We report a rare case of H1N1-related acute myocarditis diagnosed with point-of-care sonography in the emergency department (ED).
