Key result
SARS-CoV-2 infection causes arrhythmias through multiple potential mechanisms including direct myocardial injury, cytokine storms, myocarditis, ischemia, electrolyte abnormalities, and drug interactions.
Why the study?
Arrhythmias are serious, life-threatening complications of COVID-19, but their exact mechanisms remain complex and not well understood.

Informs mechanistic hypotheses for COVID-19 arrhythmias; leaves open targeted interventions until prospective data emerge.
This review provides a comprehensive overview of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying arrhythmias in patients with COVID-19, highlighting the roles of direct viral injury, cytokine storms, and ACE2 dysregulation.
Li et al. (2024) conducted a review in COVID-19 associated arrhythmias. SARS-CoV-2 infection was evaluated. SARS-CoV-2 infection causes arrhythmias through multiple potential mechanisms including direct myocardial injury, cytokine storms, myocarditis, ischemia, electrolyte abnormalities, and drug interactions.
