In collaborative centres with specific interest in the cardiac impact of COVID-19, we will carry out an additional observational sub-study.

Data will be collected retrospectively on cardiac comorbidities, cardiac complications during the hospital admission for COVID-19, including myocardial infarction, arrhythmias, cardiogenic shock, cardiac arrest and any cardiac support provided. In addition we will record essential echocardiography data and markers of cardiac injury.

Major outcomes up to 28 days post ICU admission will be obtained from the main COVID-19 Critical Care Consortium observational study.
