Key result
Dengue infection is linked to diverse cardiovascular complications, including arrhythmias, myocarditis, and myocardial dysfunction.
Why the study?
Patients with dengue may present with cardiovascular manifestations that contribute to death and disability, prompting this systematic review to identify these manifestations.

Supports heightened vigilance for cardiac complications in dengue infection; leaves open the true incidence and optimal management strategies across viral serotypes.
spp. mosquitoes. It is responsible for a significant global burden of disease and corresponding socio-economic implications. There are four different virus serotypes, all of which are found predominantly in countries with tropical climates. Patients with dengue may present with cardiovascular (CV) manifestations, contributing to associated death and disability. A systematic review was conducted to identify CV manifestations of dengue, wherein 30 relevant studies were identified in the MEDLINE and PubMed databases. CV complications of dengue include rhythm abnormalities, hypotension, myocarditis, pericarditis and deterioration in myocardial function. Prompt recognition and treatment of CV complications of dengue are essential to reduce morbidity and mortality in these patients, who are at risk of progressing to cardiogenic shock and heart failure.

Burgos et al. (2021) conducted a systematic review in Dengue with cardiovascular manifestations. Dengue virus infection was evaluated on Cardiovascular manifestations and complications (rhythm abnormalities, hypotension, myocarditis, pericarditis, and myocardial dysfunction). Dengue infection is associated with cardiovascular complications across 30 reviewed studies, including arrhythmias, hypotension, myocarditis, pericarditis, and myocardial dysfunction.
