Abstract
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) disease caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 has had a widespread global impact. In addition to the main respiratory symptoms, research has found significant effects of this virus on the cardiovascular system. This article comprehensively explores the phenomenon of "long-term COVID-19" or postacute sequelae of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection, wherein some recovered patients continue to experience long-term health issues after the resolution of acute illness. We delve into the potential reasons behind these symptoms, including increased risk of heart disease, myocardial injury, abnormal inflammatory responses, thrombosis formation, and immune system dysfunction, among others. Furthermore, this paper highlights the potential association between long-term COVID-19 and HF (heart failure), and proposes corresponding preventive strategies. To address this, we advocate for a collaborative approach involving interdisciplinary teams for treatment and management.
