摘要：The coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pand-emic has dramatically burdened health-care systems worldwide by creating new public health priorities. In addition to the most pre-valent presentation of COVID-19 with mild to mod-erate respiratory symptoms, which occasionally progresses to acute respiratory distress syndrome, cardiovascular complications of COVID-19 include arterial and venous thromboembolic events (pul-monary embolism, acute myocardial infarction (MI) and ischemic stroke), myocarditis/myocardial injury, type 2 MI, takotsubo cardiomyopathy, heart failure, arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death.[1,2] By produ-cing such effects, COVID-19 may exacerbate pre-ex-isting chronic cardiovascular diseases or precipitate the onset of acute cardiac complications in previ-ously apparently healthy individuals.
