Although inflammatory cytokines are implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiac arrhythmias, inflammation is still largely overlooked in the current management of heart rhythm disorders. Now, COVID-19, a systemic inflammatory disease, causes an unexpectedly high prevalence of arrhythmic events, emphasizing the relevance of inflammation in the pathogenesis of cardiac arrhythmias. COVID-19 is associated with an unexpectedly high prevalence of arrhythmic events. In this Comment, Lazzerini et al. discuss how systemic inflammation is linked to cardiac arrhythmias.
