Abstract

Although the findings of COVID-19 infection are generally related with the respiratory system, cardiovascular disease findings are observed in some patients at admission. As the highest mortality rate is seen in the elderly with known cardiovascular diseases, cardiologists have to take active parts in dealing with the disease in the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this review is to provide practical advice on the issues and questions that all medical doctors working in the field could face, along with the management and diagnosis of heart failure, acute coronary syndrome, coagulopathy, and hypertension in patients with COVID-19.
