Abstract
Background
Little is known about the relationship between COVID-19 severity and subsequent risk of experiencing a cardiovascular event (CVE) after COVID-19 recovery. We evaluated this relationship in a large cohort of US adults.
Methods
Using a claims database, we performed a retrospective cohort study of adults diagnosed with COVID-19 between April 1, 2020 and May 31, 2021. We evaluated the association between COVID-19 severity and risk of CVE >30 d ays after COVID-19 diagnosis using inverse probability of treatment weighted competing risks regression. Severity was based on level of care required for COVID-19 treatment: intensive care unit (ICU) admission, non-ICU hospitalization, or outpatient care only.
Results
1,357,518 COVID-19 patients were included (2% ICU, 3% non-ICU hospitalization, and 95% outpatient only). Compared to outpatients, there was an increased risk of any CVE for patients requiring ICU admission (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 1.80 [95%CI: 1.71−1.89]) or non-ICU hospitalization (HR: 1.28 [1.24−1.33]). Risk of subsequent hospitalization for CVE was even higher (HR: 3.47 [3.20–3.76] for ICU and HR: 1.96 [1.85–2.09] for non-ICU hospitalized vs. outpatient only).
Conclusions
COVID-19 patients hospitalized or requiring critical care had a significantly higher risk of experiencing and being hospitalized for post-COVID-19 CVE than patients with milder C OVID-19 who were managed solely in the outpatient setting even after adjusting for differences between these groups. These findings underscore the continued importance of preventing SARS-CoV-2 infection from progressing to severe illness to reduce potential long-term cardiovascular complications.
