Myocarditis is an inflammatory process of the heart muscle (myocardium). Myocarditis can present in the acute, subacute, or chronic phase with either focal or diffuse involvement of the myocardium. Viral infections are the most frequent cause of myocarditis in the United States and other developed countries. In developing countries, rheumatic carditis, Chagas disease, and complications related to advanced HIV/AIDS are important causes of myocarditis. Myocarditis is diagnosed based on clinical presentation, and diagnosis is classically confirmed by endomyocardial biopsy. This activity reviews the evaluation and management of myocarditis and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in managing patients with this condition.
