Non-ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Secondary to Coronary Multi-Vessel Thrombosis in the Setting of COVID-19.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been shown to impact the cardiovascular system by causing congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, myocarditis, acute coronary syndrome (ACS), or nonischemic cardiomyopathy. The infection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) triggers the overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines, generating systemic inflammation and a procoagulant state that can lead to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Symptomatology may not be discrete with presentation of chest pain, dyspnea, and fatigue, so careful consideration should be applied to cardiovascular complications. Serial troponin dosage as well as EKG changes serve as viable prognosis markers. Prompt dissolution of the thrombi will minimize the extent of the myocardial injury.
