When restricting comparison to patients with a prior (baseline) echocardiogram within 1 year prior to SARS-CoV-2 hospitalization, there was no significant difference in LV EF (65.0% [61.0%–70.0%] at baseline vs 62.0% [54.0%–69.0%] during hospital visit, p = 0.23), but there was a strong trend toward worsening in median GLS during hospital visit compared to baseline (−11.1% [−14.4% to −10.5%] vs −15.1% [−15.3% to −12.8%], p = 0.06).
