Abstract:
Cardiovascular complications associated with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection are common and lead to high mortality in the acute phase and high morbidity in the chronic phase impacting an individual's quality of life and health outcomes. Patients afflicted with coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) infection display an increased risk for myocarditis, dysrhythmia, pericarditis, ischemic heart disease, heart failure, and thromboembolism. Although cardiovascular complications are reported across all patients with COVID-19, hospitalized patients with severe infection are most vulnerable. The underline pathobiology remains poorly defined albeit complex. Following current guidelines in decision-making for evaluation and management in addition to the beginning or returning exercise is recommended.
