NCT04636320

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence and arrhythmogenic role of occult myocardial scars on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) in a population of patients with history of laboratory-proven symptomatic COVID-19 infection managed without hospitalization, as compared to a population of age- and sex-matched healthy volunteers.

Patient group COVID-19

EXPERIMENTAL

120 patients with history of laboratory-proven symptomatic COVID-19 infection managed without hospitalization

Device: Contrast-enhanced CMRDiagnostic Test: Exercise test ECGBiological: Blood sampleDiagnostic Test: Resting 12 lead ECGDiagnostic Test: 24 hour Holter ECG

Healthy volunteer group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

120 healthy volunteers. Age- and sex-matched controls

Device: Contrast-enhanced CMRDiagnostic Test: Exercise test ECGBiological: Blood sampleDiagnostic Test: Resting 12 lead ECGDiagnostic Test: 24 hour Holter ECG

Interventions

Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) examinations will be performed at Day 0 visit on clinical systems 1.5 equipped with specific antennas for cardiac imaging. The imaging protocol will last approximately 50 minutes.

Healthy volunteer groupPatient group COVID-19
Exercise test ECGDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

A treadmill exercise test with 12 lead ECG monitoring will be performed at M3 visit. Maximum expected enrollment 30 MRI+ patients and 30 healthy volunteers MRI- matched controls.

Healthy volunteer groupPatient group COVID-19
Blood sampleBIOLOGICAL

A blood sample will be taken at Day 0 visit for COVID-19 serology, hematocrit measurement, ultra-high sensitive troponin test, low grade markers of inflammation, genetic profiling. An other blood sample will be taken at M3 visit for a control COVID-19 serology for 30 healthy volunteers.
