The Effect of Covid 19 on the Heart Rate in Children

Background: Covid 19 affects children’s heartbeats positively, as it causes a disorder in which the heart rate is fast and irregular, which causes poor blood circulation and can lead to clots or even a stroke. Objective: This study aims to study the effect of Covid 19 on the heart rate in children. Patients and Methods: In this study, an analytical study was conducted to find out the effect of Covid 19 on the heart rate of children and their quality of life. This study was divided into two groups, the first was 100 patients, and the second was 100 control patients. This study included age, sex, percentile, weight (kg), height (cm), body mass index (kg/m2), clinical presentation, n (%), asymptomatic, and mild. Results and Discussion: Studies indicate that children are less affected than adults in terms of their exposure to Covid-19, as pediatric patients respond to the Covid virus differently. In this study, the overall criteria were described by the patient test, which included a BMI of 14.5 ± 1.4 for the patient group and 14.7 ± 1.5 for the control group with a P value of 0.049. This study also showed laboratory results. The most characteristic in Table 2 are 11.6 ± 1.3 for patients and 12.6 ± 7 for the control group with a P value of 0.048, and the second is platelets which included 260 ± 71.2 patients and 263 ± 73.5 control group. Conclusion: Children are considered the most affected by Covid-19 disease, which has been confirmed by all studies that Covid disease greatly affects heart function. This study concluded that the control group is less affected than the patients' group
