Overview

Scientific evidence demonstrates that while COVID-19 primarily affects the lungs, it also affects multiple organs, particularly the cardiovascular system; its most common complications are arrhythmia, cardiac injury, fulminant myocarditis, heart failure, and pulmonary embolism. COVID-19’s Consequences on the Cardiovascular System: Immediate, Intermediate, and Long-Term Complications covers all aspects related to the interplay between SARS-COV-2 infection and the cardiovascular system, from bench to bedside and from acute infection to long-term complications. Written by a team of experts, this book is a one-stop-shop reference for healthcare professionals and researchers who require a comprehensive view of the deleterious effects of COVID-19 on the cardiovascular system. It discusses the relationship of cardiovascular risk factors with COVID-19 prognosis. It offers further insights into the biomarkers that currently make it possible to predict and monitor the evolution of the disease at the cardiovascular level.
