“…Heart failure is postulated to occur in COVID‐19 patients due to the severe immune system over‐reaction resulting in cytokine storm. The virus downregulates the angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), leading to increased levels of Angiotensin II causing increased inflammation, hypertension, and thrombosis 21 . As further data becomes available, the mechanism of heart failure in COVID‐19 patients will become clearer and help provide a standard approach to its treatment.…”

“…The exact mechanism of cardiac injury due to the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been difficult to confirm ( 7 , 12 ), although some autopsy studies have showed direct myocyte involvement or secondary injury from the profound inflammatory response invoked by SARS-CoV-2 ( 7 , 13 , 14 ).…”

“…The management of myocardial dysfunction in COVID-19 leading to HF is similar to other forms of HF. Optimization of fluid balance, monitoring of electrolytes and renal function, and early use of the cardiac catheterization laboratory and invasive monitoring all play important roles in managing COVID patients with HF [58].…”
