Summary

A global study for a better understanding of the cardiovascular conditions that increase the risk of developing severe COVID-19, and a better characterization of cardiovascular complications in hospitalized patients with COVID-19.

Description

COVID-19 may be cardiotropic in a subset of patients. Both acute and pre-existing CVD impact outcomes unfavorably. It is possible that one common CVD treatment, medications that impact ACE-2 function, may impact outcomes either favorably or unfavorably.

However, studies so far have, perforce, been conducted with important limitations (e.g. small numbers, limited geographical representation, lack of data standardization for risk factors and outcomes, limited measurement, lack of appropriate adjustment for important confounders, and missing data). Considering the high global prevalence of CVD and its risk factors (e.g. hypertension and diabetes) and the suggested link with COVID19 it is urgent to initiate more robust studies to clarify the many issues early reports have engendered. So that investigators will conduct a global study for a better understanding of the cardiovascular conditions that increase the risk of developing severe COVID-19, and a better characterization of cardiovascular complications in hospitalized patients with COVID-19.
