Title COVID-19 i bolesti srčano-žilnog sustava Title (english) COVID-19 and diseases of the cardiovascular system Author Michael Štadelhofer Mentor Tomislav Meštrović (mentor)Committee member Zoran Žeželj (predsjednik povjerenstva) Committee member Tomislav Meštrović (član povjerenstva)Committee member Valentina Vincek (član povjerenstva) Granter University North Defense date and country 2022-09-30, Croatia Scientific / art field, BIOMEDICINE AND HEALTHCARE Abstract Pojava novog koronavirusa, službeno poznatog kao teški akutni respiratorni sindromkoronavirus-
2 (SARS-CoV-2) koji predstavlja izazov za zdravstvenu zajednicu diljem svijeta.
Prvi slučaj ove bolesti, poznate kao koronavirusna bolest 2019.(COVID-2019), dogodio se 8.
prosinca 2019. u kineskoj provinciji Hubei. Do 22.5.2022. godine u Svijetu je potvrđeno preko
526 milijuna slučajeva COVID-2019 od toga je preko 6,28 milijuna umrlih od virusa. U
Hrvatskoj je zaraženo 1,13 milijuna stanovnika i umrlo 15.966 stanovnika. Infekcija virusom
SARS-CoV-2 može biti asimptomatska ili može rezultirati blagom do teškom simptomatskom
bolešću. Bolesnici najčešće imaju simptome kao što su groznica i kašalj, a većina njih razvija
nelagodu u prsima, poteškoće s disanjem ili upalu pluća. Pacijenti s infekcijom SARS-CoV-2
imaju potencijal razviti teško zatajenje srca i na kraju umrijeti od iznenadne srčane smrti.
Vidljivo je da je jedna od popularnih komplikacija COVID-19 je zatajenje srca koje može biti
uzrokovano pogoršanim već postojećim srčanim disfunkcijama, kao i novonastalom
kardiomiopatijom i miokarditisom. Srčana disfunkcija nije uobičajena posljedica bolesti
COVID-19. Međutim, oštećenje miokarda zabilježeno je kod značajnog broja zaraženih
pacijenata. Telemedicina i vježbanje kod kuće mogu pomoći u održavanju programa
rehabilitacije i sprečavanju budućeg povećanja ponovnog prihvata i stope smrtnosti u
bolnicama, izbjegavajući pritom porast prijenosa bolesti COVID-19 i dodatno opterećenje
zdravstvenih sustava. Zdravstveni djelatnici moraju biti stalno u tijeku i prilagođavati svoje
savjete pacijentima te mijenjati vlastito profesionalno i privatno ponašanje. Međutim, iz ovog
'izazova pristupa' proizašla je prilika da se ubrza prijelaz na (ili kombiniraju) pristupačne kućne
i tehnološke modele rehabilitacije srca, uz odgovarajuće osiguranje kvalitete za njihovu
isporuku. Razvoj i pružanje inovativnih modela liječenja i rehabilitacije je važna kako bi se
potakla prevencija i zdraviji način života koji se stavljen u drugi plan tijekom ove pandemije.
Abstract (english) The emergence of a new coronavirus, officially known as severe acute respiratory
syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), poses a challenge to the health community around the
world. The first case of this disease, known as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-2019),
occurred on December 8, 2019 in the Chinese province of Hubei. Until 22.5.2022. In 2019,
over 526 million cases of COVID 2019 were confirmed worldwide, of which more than 6.28
million died from the virus. In Croatia, 1.13 million inhabitants were infected, and 15,966
inhabitants died. Infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus can be asymptomatic or can lead to mild
to severe symptomatic disease. Patients usually have symptoms such as fever and cough, and
most develop chest discomfort, shortness of breath or pneumonia. Patients with SARS-CoV-2
infection can develop severe heart failure and eventually die of sudden cardiac death.
Obviously, one of the popular complications of COVID-19 is heart failure, which can be caused
by worsening of pre-existing cardiac dysfunctions, as well as new-onset cardiomyopathy and
myocarditis. Cardiac dysfunction is not a common consequence of COVID-19. However,
myocardial damage has been reported in a significant number of infected patients. Telemedicine
and home exercise can help sustain rehabilitation programs and prevent future increases in
hospital readmissions and mortality rates, while avoiding increased transmission of COVID-19
and additional burden on healthcare systems. Healthcare professionals must be constantly upto-
date and adapt their advice to patients and change their own professional and private
behavior. However, from this 'access challenge' arose an opportunity to accelerate the transition
to (or a combination of) affordable home and technology models of cardiac rehabilitation, with
adequate quality assurance for their delivery. Developing and providing innovative models of
treatment and rehabilitation are important to encourage prevention and healthy lifestyles that
have been put on the back burner during this pandemic.
