    Dengue is a viral infection with potential cardiac complications, affecting up to 60% of hospitalized patients.

  • 2

    ECG abnormalities in dengue patients are nonspecific and generally resolve over time, with some correlation to disease severity.

  • 3

    Common ECG findings in dengue include sinus bradycardia and atrioventricular block, while severe cases may show signs of myocardial injury.

  • 4

    The study analyzed ECGs of 143 Vietnamese patients with non-severe dengue, revealing a need for further investigation into cardiac effects.

  • 5

    Routine ECG monitoring in non-severe dengue patients may not be essential, especially in resource-limited settings.
