ABSTRACT
Background: Most common cardio vascular disease events after COVID-19 were hypertension, pulmonary embolism, acute coronary syndrome, myocarditis, stress-Cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias, carcinogenic shock, and cardiac arrest. Aim: The aim of this study was to analyze the onset of post-COVID-19 cardiovascular events in patients hospitalized in a tertiary care center Methods: This retrospective observational study was carried out in the department of medicine in a tertiary care hospital, central India. Asses all the participants for post covid cardio vascular events, detailed history, clinical examination and all necessary investigation was done Results: in our study Post COVID 19 cardio vascular events was occur in 17.5%. Majority of the patient was male (68.6%), most common age group were 51-60 years. Higher incidence of cardio vascular disease was reported in obese person. Common cardio vascular diseases found after COVID 19 infection were, hypertension (35.7%), pulmonary embolism (22.9%), Myocarditis (20%), myocardial infection (11.4%) and Arrhythmias were in 10% cases. Conclusion: Overall observations indicate an increased incidence of hypertension and CVDs post recovery from COVID-19. A dual therapy of ARBs was the preferred choice for management of hypertension. Regular follow-up and close monitoring of symptoms to prevent further CV complications in COVID-19 recovered patients is recommended.

ABSTRACT
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a life-threatening respiratory infection caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome virus (SARS-CoV-2), a novel human coronavirus. COVID-19 was declared a pandemic by World Health Organization in March 2020 for its continuous and rapid spread worldwide. Rapidly emerging COVID-19 epicenters and mutants of concerns have created mammoth chaos in healthcare sectors across the globe. With over 185 million infections and approximately 4 million deaths globally, COVID-19 continues its unchecked spread despite all mitigation measures. Until effective and affordable antiretroviral drugs are made available and the population at large is vaccinated, timely diagnosis of the infection and adoption of COVID-appropriate behavior remains major tool available to curtail the still escalating COVID-19 pandemic. This review provides an updated overview of various techniques of COVID-19 testing in human samples and also discusses, in brief, the biochemical composition and mode of transmission of the SARS-CoV-2. Technological advancement in various molecular, serological and immunological techniques including mainly the reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), CRISPR, lateral flow assays (LFAs), and immunosensors are reviewed.
