Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Covid19 Vaccinated Patients
Patients who are planning to receive Pfizer-BioNTech BNT162b2 vaccines against Covid19
Blood tests to determine liver and kidney functioning, total blood count, and troponin levels
ECG to determine heart rate and functioning
PCR test to determine whether patient has Covid19
Antibody test to determine level of antibodies to Covid19
If Troponin level elevated echocardiography to determine heart function
If Troponin level elevated MRI to determine heart function

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Elevated Troponin
Time Frame: 4 weeks
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.
