Brief Summary:

Background: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a tremendous challenge the modern world has never seen before and is overwhelming the capacities of healthcare systems worldwide. Patients with cardiovascular diseases, heart failure in particular, and cardiovascular risk factors seem to be at a very high risk if affected by COVID-19 - and vice versa there are more and more reports of cardiac manifestations with the viral disease.

Aim: The purpose of the study is to characterise the clinical course of adult inpatients with COVID-19 and concomitant cardiovascular affection in a worldwide, multicentre PCHF registry.

Methods: Retrospective and prospective data analysis. Data on demographic, clinical, selected laboratory, electrocardiography and echocardiography parameters, treatment and outcome will be collected. The principal investigator provides dedicated electronic case report form. The primary outcome is in-hospital mortality. The secondary endpoints will be ICU length of stay, hospital length of stay, the need and duration of invasive mechanical ventilation, cardiovascular hospitalisation after 3 and 6 months from index hospitalisation, all-cause and cardiovascular mortality after 3 and 6 months from index hospitalisation.

Study Population
Adult inpatients (≥18 years old) with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19. Subjects with pre-existing cardiovascular disease and/or cardiac manifestations of COVID-19 infection (heart failure, acute coronary syndrome, myocarditis, arrhythmias, sudden cardiac arrest) and/or cardiovascular risk factors (dyslipidemia, hypertension, diabetes) are the focus of the study. Hospitalised subjects with COVID-19, but without cardiovascular disease or risk factors, will be used as a control population.
