Multiple domains of study design, especially sampling representativeness, need to be improved in future studies on long-term cardiac symptoms following COVID-19. Notably, low-quality and smaller studies tend to report a larger proportion of symptoms, are more likely to be subject to greater sampling variation, and hence are less precise. These studies should be revisited with the emergence of large studies with rigriours study designs. This systematic review and meta-analysis highlight the scope of persistent cardiac symptoms among those who survived the acute phase of COVID-19, and the importance of synthesizing rigorous evidence to inform post-COVID surveillance and management plans.
