Abstract
The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has led to a global pandemic. While acute respiratory failure has been the predominant concern, there have been reports of other end-organ damage such as renal failure. We report a case of an elderly woman who presented with BRASH syndrome, a constellation of bradycardia, renal failure, atrioventricular (AV) nodal blockade, shock, and hyperkalemia (BRASH), which was likely triggered by COVID-19.
Keywords: av nodal blockers; bradycardia; brash syndrome; coronavirus disease 2019; hyperkalemia; renal failure; sars-cov-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus -2); shock.
