Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this activity, the participant should be able to:
- Distinguish how inflammatory cytokines generated during SARS-CoV-2 infection, and/or viral entry into endothelial cells, may cause vascular impairment resulting in vascular inflammation, edema, and thrombosis.
- Discuss how an endotheliopathy likely contributes to the pulmonary and cardiovascular manifestations of COVID-19.
- Identify several unusual manifestations of COVID-19, including myocarditis, cognitive disturbance, and “COVID toes,” that may be driven by endothelial perturbation.
- Define how “Long COVID” may cause a persisting endothelial dysfunction.
