The COVID-19 infection, initially observed as Acute Respiratory Syndrome was identified to be caused by SARS-COV-2, presented with various long term extra pulmonary complications which included the cardiovascular sequelae that persisted beyond the acute phase which is referred to as Long COVID or Post-acute COVID Syndrome. This review aims to explore the impact and association
of COVID-19 on an individual's cardiovascular health. This is crucial for a better understanding of whether long COVID could manifest with cardiac deconditioning, leading to impaired exercise performance among patients with long COVID and potentially resulting in long-term cardiovascular consequences.
