This Short Editorial is referred by the Research article "Disease Severity Affects Ventricular Repolarization Parameters in Patients With COVID-19".

The centennial ECG is still an excellent tool to assess electrical activity of the heart. ECG has been renovated over the last decades to keep pace with evolution in other areas of knowledge, such as genetics, molecular biology and electrophysiology.

Our experience has demonstrated that, among the large diagnostic arsenal available to investigate heart diseases, the electrocardiogram, this simple, practical, remote and quick tool, is capable of accurately monitoring the extent and severity of cardiac involvement in various scenarios.
