Sumario:We report a case of a 51-year-old male with no past medical history who was admitted for acute hypoxic respiratory failure secondary to COVID-19. During his hospitalization, the patient developed sinus bradycardia and frequent sinus pauses were observed on telemetry. No other cause of his bradyarrhythmia was identified except for his COVID-19 infection. There has been numerous case reports and case series describing different arrhythmias seen in patients infected with COVID-19. We present a case of sinus arrest in a patient with COVID-19 and a review of other case reports describing bradyarrhythmia in COVID-19 patients.
