Tachycardia is a common symptom of COVID-19.
Tachycardia, particularly in the context of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome and cardiovascular dysautonomia, is widely recognized as a frequent symptom and complication of acute and long-term COVID-19.
The retrieved literature consistently supports the assertion that tachycardia and related cardiovascular dysautonomia (such as POTS) occur frequently in patients with COVID-19 and Long COVID.
