Abstract

The symptoms of COVID-19 patients have been alleviated by pharmaceutical treatment, and immunization has been demonstrated to protect against SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, following COVID-19 infection, a series of clinical symptoms may persist over long period, a condition also known as long-hauler syndromes. In the present study, we review the long-hauler syndromes of COVID-19 and its potential pathophysiological mechanisms, and examine the causes and prognosis of persistent cardiovascular symptoms of long-hauler syndromes. Future treatments and management strategies for long-hauler syndromes are also one of the main focuses herein, with a special interest on several medications approved for the treatment of COVID-19 and their relation to these syndromes. This article also seeks to raise public awareness of long-hauler syndrome and its risk factors, since it posits a global challenge to the healthcare system and to the economy. If everyone works together and more and more effective management alternatives are developed as more is known about COVID-19, society will be able to safeguard the health of every person.
