Abstract
People infected with new coronavirus (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, SARS-CoV-2) usually have respiratory symptoms as their typical manifestations. With the increase in the number of infections, studies have found that the prognosis of patients with cardiovascular disease is more serious than that of ordinary patients. Some patients have viral infection-related heart damage, which may be related to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)-mediated SARS-CoV-2 infection. Appropriate application of myocardial protective drugs may help improve the prognosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
