The goal of this observational study, drug-free, cross-sectional, single-center is to describe the incidence and characteristics of the clinical course and any short- and medium-term complications of patients with congenital heart disease of medical interest, and pediatric patients with cardiomyopathy, arrhythmic pathology or pulmonary arterial hypertension who have been affected by Sars-Cov-2 disease. The secondary objective of the study is to identify risk factors for the development of moderate-severe forms of COVID-19 disease in the study population.

The structural collection of data necessary for the evaluation of targets will take place through the creation of a specific electronic archive, in which census of all patients who have undergone follow-up at our centre since 01/01/2005 at the time of study approval and still in follow-up at the time of the start of the pandemic.
