COVID-2019 disease mainly affects the respiratory tract and can progress in severe cases to pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome and multi-organ failure. Patients with prior cardiovascular disease are at higher risk of developing an infection and progressing to a severe form of the disease. Also, due to the growing number of infected cases, it is clear that, in addition to the typical respiratory symptoms caused by the infection, some patients suffer from cardiovascular damage. This condition can, in fact, cause significant myocardial damage, which worsens the disease and affects the prognosis. Based on the results of currently published research, it seems important to discuss the manifestations and characteristics of myocardial damage induced by COVID-19 and its impact on patient prognosis.
新型冠状病毒肺炎（COVID-2019）主要影响呼吸道，严重时可发展为肺炎、急性呼吸窘迫综合征和多器官功能衰竭。既往有心血管疾病的患者感染并发展为重症的风险更高。此外，由于感染病例不断增加，很明显，除了感染引起的典型呼吸道症状外，一些患者还存在心血管损害。事实上，这种情况可导致严重的心肌损伤，从而使病情恶化并影响预后。根据目前已发表的研究结果，探讨COVID-19所致心肌损伤的表现、特点及其对患者预后的影响似乎很重要。
