| Abstract | Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, responsible for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is a pandemic that has taken the world by storm. We present the only contemporary reported case of COVID-19 myocarditis leading to recovery with utilization of biventricular Impella (Abiomed, Danvers, MA, USA) for temporary mechanical circulatory support. A 35-year-old female with systemic sclerosis who was found to have five days of generalized malaise associated with fevers and cough. She tested positive for COVID-19 via nasal polymerase chain reaction. Cardiac enzymes were found elevated on admission. Invasive hemodynamics assessment was significant for elevated right and left-sided filling pressures, along with calculated cardiac index of 1.3 L/min/m |
