The American College of Cardiology (ACC) will begin collecting COVID-19 data through the National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR) Chest Pain-MI and CathPCI registries. The ACC said the goal is to capture the relationship between COVID-19 and heart disease and maximize data on the cardiac impact of the virus. The registries will accept data on COVID-19 patients from the beginning of the pandemic in the U.S. early this year, allowing hospitals to join the registries to track their patient care during COVID-19.
