Summary of cardiovascular effects of COVID-19 treatment modalities can be found in Table 3. TABLE 3. Cardiovascular effects associated with COVID-19 Treatment Modalities DrugMechanism of action in COVIDCV Adverse Effects Hydroxychloroquine/Chloroquine Interference in endocytic pathwayPrevention of cytokine...
Cardiovascular damage in COVID-19 patients is common and portends a worse prognosis. Although the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of cardiovascular damage related to COVID-19 are not completely clear, two important pathogenic mechanisms of cardiovascular damage may be the direct damage of the ...
(ACE2) receptor, which is expressed predominantly in the lungs but also throughout the cardiovascular system (1). Thus, although the most virulent manifestation of COVID-19 is acute respiratory distress syndrome, reports from ...
As COVID-19 has been associated with a multitude of cardiovascular complications,11, 12, 13 the role of venoarterial (VA) ECMO in the event of COVID-19–associated cardiovascular collapse has not been established. We sought to review the existing evidence surrounding the role of VA-ECMO in ...
