ABSTRACT

Introduction: COVID-19 is caused by SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus and it has become a pandemic in 185 countries. Cuba has faced this pandemic without having any deaths in the pediatric ages.
Objective: Examine clinical, epidemiological and cardiovascular aspects in patients under 18 years’ old who are convalescents of COVID-19.
Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional study in 36 patients diagnosed with COVID-19 from March to May, 2020 in Villa Clara province, Cuba; whom were attended after the clinical and epidemiological discharge in the Cardiology consultation of “José Luis Miranda” University Hospital in July, 2020.The non-probabilistic sample was formed with the patients that went to the consultation. The variables studied were: age, sex, weight, size, personal and epidemiological pathologic background, period of hospitalization, physical exam, initial and during recovery’s complementary tests. The results were expressed in absolute and relative values.
Results: There was a predominance of patients older than 10 years (60.0 %), female sex (55.5 %), optimal nutritional state and no chronic diseases. Santa Clara and Camajuaní presented events of local transmission and showed higher incidence rates. Most of the patients there were asymptomatic, and were detected mainly due to the epidemiological record of confirmed and suspicious cases (89.0 %). Complications in the initial phases of convalescents were myocarditis and pericarditis (13.8 %).
Conclusions: There were detected cardiovascular complications as a consequence of the viral infection by SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, with epidemiological, clinical, electrocardiographic, thorax radiology and echocardiographic criteria.
