Introduction:
The ongoing Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) global pandemic has resulted in over six million deaths worldwide.1 In addition to primary acute respiratory symptoms, COVID-19 has been demonstrated to have multisystem involvement.2Cardiovascular system manifestations include thrombosis, acute coronary syndrome, arrhythmias, myocarditis, and evidence of subclinical myocardial dysfunction, with increased risk of mortality observed following myocardial injury.3 Cardiac resonance imaging (CMR) provides the highest diagnostic accuracy for acute myocarditis, however speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) derived strain analysis offers a more pragmatic alternative. STE examination has demonstrated sub-clinical myocardial involvement of patients with only mild/ moderate COVID-19 symptoms.4
