SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for the 2020 global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. In patients with COVID-19, multiple cardiovascular (CV) manifestations have been reported. SARS coronavirus 2 infection can lead to inflammatory CV disease first via takeover of the angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 enzyme as a cell receptor as well as the macrophage activation syndrome in severe illness. We review the CV manifestations of COVID-19 and therapeutics under investigation. We discuss the potential long-term CV sequelae after recovery from COVID-19 and the gaps in knowledge including the pathophysiological links between acute cardiac injury, myocardial inflammation and chronic cardiomyopathy. Future investigational efforts could result in significant diagnostic and therapeutic advances potentially impacting the broader field of chronic heart failure and cardiac recovery. Lay abstract COVID-19 has led to a global pandemic, and many patients infected with this novel virus develop cardiovascular (CV) complications including heart attacks, strokes, heart failure and sudden cardiac death. We will review the pathophysiology behind how a viral infection can place a patient at risk and cause multiple CV diseases. Additionally, we will review our current knowledge regarding treatment for the novel corona virus and long-term risk for patients who recover from COVID-19. At last, we will discuss the future perspective regarding what we can learn about how a virus can cause CV disease and how we can better equip ourselves for future pandemics.
