The COVID-19 pandemic posed a major challenge in all areas of life, both for healthcare professionals and all patients treated in hospitals at the time, and especially COVID-positive patients who developed acute respiratory syndrome or pneumonia. These patients were respiratory dependent in intensive care units and during treatment they developed symptoms of acute coronary heart disease and acute myocardial infarction (AMI). (1) The major challenges posed to nurses during a pandemic are numerous from psychological support to patients, patient’s families who did not have access to their loved ones, protective equipment, placing the patient in a pronation position, monitoring hemodynamic changes and that are just some of the tasks that nurses needed to respond to.

We will attempt to demonstrate some of the challenges in health care that we face by presenting the case of patients with AMI during treatment in the intensive COVID unit.
