Prevalence of Silent Myocardial Scars on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Following COVID-19 Infection

Name
CHUBX 2020/22
Description
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.

Treatment
Contrast-enhanced CMR
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.
Arms:
Healthy volunteer group, Patient group COVID-19
Exercise test ECG
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.
Arms:
Healthy volunteer group, Patient group COVID-19
Blood sample
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.
Arms:
Healthy volunteer group, Patient group COVID-19
Resting 12 lead ECG
A resting 12 lead ECG will be performed at Day 0 visit.
Arms:
Healthy volunteer group, Patient group COVID-19
24 hour Holter ECG
A 24 hour Holter ECG will be performed at M3 visit. Maximum expected enrollment 30 MRI+ patients and 30 healthy volunteers MRI- matched controls.
