摘　　要：BACKGROUND Cardiac arrhythmias,including bradyarrhythmias,have been described as manifestations of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19).Herein,we present a case of junctional bradycardia secondary to possible sinus node dysfunction in a patient with COVID-19.CASE SUMMARY The patient was a 32-year-old woman with no significant medical history.On the third day of hospitalization,she developed junctional bradycardia while being hemodynamically stable.The episodes of nodal dysrhythmia with a low heart rate persisted for the next few days and were associated with elevated levels of systemic inflammatory markers.The patient received antiviral and anti-inflammatory treatments for the viral infection but no antiarrhythmic medications.She had a normal sinus rhythm on day 12.CONCLUSION Cardiac rhythm monitoring,focusing on the association between cardiac arrhythmias and the systemic inflammatory response,is important in COVID-19 patients.
