Features of damage to the cardiovascular system during coronavirus infection

The article presents an analysis of qualitative and quantitative shifts in the nosological forms of coronavirus infection, as well as clinical and anatomical forms of this disease. It has been established that the above-mentioned changes are characterized by the predominance of cardiovascular diseases, both non-specific (arrhythmic lesions and secondary arterial hypertension) and specific (viral myocarditis) forms. The data of the original study can be further used in clinical practice for the treatment of patients with coronavirus infection.
