Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death worldwide, claiming 18.6 million lives per year. COVID-19 pandemic has been challenging for people with CVD. COVID-19 can worsen underlying CVD and even precipitate de novo cardiac complications. In addition, the pandemic has also hampered the practical training and skills-development sessions for interns and medical practitioners to prevent and control CVD.
The main focus of World Heart Day 2021 is to raise awareness, prevent, and manage CVD worldwide using the power of digital health. Telehealth has a huge role to play as we all unite to Use Heart to Beat CVD . On this World Heart Day , we invite you to attend this webinar on “The Power of Digital Health to Improve Awareness, Prevention and Management of CVD Globally” on September 29 , 2021, 3:00 PM onwards.
