On echocardiography, higher systolic pulmonary arterial pressure and documented cardiac thrombi were associated with treatment changes in these patients. e objective of this study was to collect clinical, biological, and echocardiographic data of COVID-19 patients who were admitted to various departments of our institution and who underwent echocardiography, to find out the reasons of TTE/TEE examinations in these patients and to assess the impact of TTE/TEE on their management. TTE and TEE were performed on confirmed or highly suspected COVID-19 patients admitted to our institution, by dedicated teams of one cardiologist and one nurse every time. e very first echocardiographies prospectively performed in our hospital on confirmed or highly suspected COVID-19 patients are reported in this article. ./cache/cord-316728-vyfkmniu.txt ./txt/cord-316728-vyfkmniu.txt
