Brief Summary
The present study aims to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 disease and its treatment on ventricular repolarization, assessed by measuring the QTc interval, in patients admitted to the critical care unit.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Assessing the QT and QTc interval in patients admitted to intensive care units for COVID-19 infection
The QT interval measurement will be performed on the available 12-lead ECG from the medical record. The QT interval will be measured according to the recommendations of the scientific societies of cardiology: it is considered from the beginning of the activation of the ventricular myocardium and the end of its repolarization, which are represented in the ECG respectively by the beginning of the QRS and the end of the T wave. Ideally, the QT interval should be measured in Q-wave leads in DII and V5. An average value of 3 heart cycles (beats) should be recorded. Two researchers to control inter-observer variability will perform the measurement.
through study completion, an average of 1 year
Secondary Outcomes (1)
incidence of arrhythmias and impact of the COVI-drugs administered on QT interval
through study completion, an average of 1 year
Study Arms (1)
Critical care patients
Patients admitted to critical care units for COVID-19, where ECG records and relevant clinical information are available to assess the impact of the disease and its concomitant treatment on electrocardiographic parameters of ventricular repolarization
Eligibility Criteria
* Patients admitted to critical care units with COVID-19 infection * Ages between 18-80 years * Documentation in the clinical history sufficient to collect the data of interest to the study.
You may qualify if:
- Patients admitted to intensive care units for COVID-19 infection with an ECG record
You may not qualify if:
- Patients in critical care unit without COVID-19 infection
