Abstract
COVID-19 infection caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus has been associated with cardiac abnormalities, including conduction
abnormalities. Convalescent plasma is emerging as a potentially safe and effective treatment option for patients severely or
critically ill with COVID-19. Here, we describe a case of a COVID-19 patient with new-onset cardiac ectopy who had near
resolution of his cardiac sequelae following convalescent plasma transfusion.
