Why the study?
COVID-19 vaccination can exacerbate asthma, and status asthmaticus sometimes induces takotsubo cardiomyopathy.
Highlights a rare case of takotsubo cardiomyopathy secondary to status asthmaticus triggered by mRNA COVID-19 vaccination, which resolved with asthma therapy.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Raises possibility of takotsubo after mRNA vaccination via asthma exacerbation; leaves open causal link requiring systematic study.
Recent studies have reported that coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) vaccination can exacerbate asthma. Status asthmaticus sometimes induces takotsubo cardiomyopathy. We present a case of takotsubo cardiomyopathy triggered by asthma exacerbation after the mRNA-based vaccination. Therapies for status asthmaticus resulted in prompt improvement of respiratory failure and cardiac-apex ballooning.
