“…6 In contrast, stress cardiomyopathy, also known as takotsubo syndrome, is predominantly characterized by isolated left ventricular dysfunction and only in a minority of patients by right ventricular involvement. 7 However, it may be difficult to diagnose and differentiate between acute right-sided and left-sided heart failure based on clinical presentation. Moreover, ECG changes depicting right ventricular strain are not sensitive to diagnose acute right-sided heart failure.…”

“…The role of stress (Takotsubo) cardiomyopathy in COVID-19 related cardiac injury is not known at this time, with no cases in the literature currently. However, several of the proposed mechanisms of COVID-19 related cardiac injury detailed in this review are also thought to be implicated in the pathophysiology of stress cardiomyopathy, particularly those of microvascular dysfunction, cytokine storm and sympathetic surge (95).…”

“…9 Echocardiography shows a classic pattern of wall-motion abnormality with hypokinesis of the mid-and apical left ventricle (LV) with sparing of the basal segments-the basal myocardium usually shows compensatory hyperkinesis. 15 All 3 conditions present with acute chest pain, elevated troponin, ischemic findings on EKG, 16 There have been temporal patterns described with time of week, day, and even season of the year being more likely to be associated with TC, for example most series have described a summer preference for TC. TC with an emotional or no trigger is termed primary, whereas that occurring in sepsis, trauma, intracranial bleeds, or similar acute illnesses is termed secondary.…”

“…14 In the acute stages, the diagnosis can be challenging to make because of similarities with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or myocarditis. 15 All 3 conditions present with acute chest pain, elevated troponin, ischemic findings on EKG, 16 and wall-motion abnormalities on echocardiography. 17 Often, invasive coronary angiography is the first diagnostic test in a patient with acute chest pain and elevated cardiac biomarkers, especially if there is ST elevation or ongoing chest pain.…”
