COVID-19-induced postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome treated with ivabradine.

A 22-year-old woman was referred with exertional dyspnoea and chest tightness 3 weeks following a diagnosis of COVID-19. Evaluation revealed a resting sinus tachycardia and criteria for postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome were met. After non-pharmacological interventions failed to yield symptomatic improvement, ivabradine was commenced. This intervention was followed by a substantial improvement in the patient's exercise tolerance and energy levels and an objective reduction in supine and standing heart rate.
