    Diagnostic Test: Laboratory Blood Tests · Diagnostic Test: ECG · Diagnostic Test: PCR · Diagnostic Test: Antibody test · Diagnostic Test: Echocardiography · Diagnostic Test: MRI

Interventions

  • Diagnostic testLaboratory Blood Tests

    Blood tests to determine liver and kidney functioning, total blood count, and troponin levels

  • Diagnostic testECG

    ECG to determine heart rate and functioning

  • Diagnostic testPCR

    PCR test to determine whether patient has Covid19

  • Diagnostic testAntibody test

    Antibody test to determine level of antibodies to Covid19

  • Diagnostic testEchocardiography

    If Troponin level elevated echocardiography to determine heart function

  • Diagnostic testMRI

    If Troponin level elevated MRI to determine heart function

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Elevated Troponin

    Laboratory blood tests will be taken before and after Covid19 vaccination and compared. Troponin levels above normal range of 0.4 ng/ml will indicate possibility of perimyocarditis and patient will referred for additional testing.

    Time frame: 4 weeks
