COVID 19 UPDATE

 

Currently there is no evidence that the virus affects the heart directly however heart patients – especially those with angina, heart failure or rhythm problems fall into the high risk category and should minimize social contact. We are dealing with an unprecedented crisis and this is causing tremendous emotional stress that can increase both your heart rate and blood pressure. If you feel unwell it is worth getting a blood pressure monitor to assess you readings. If you contract the virus the inflammation can cause plaques to rupture and a viral pneumonia can stress the right heart function. If you have a fever or cough it should be assessed in the emergency department but if you have shortness of breath or chest pain we are here for you. We also have Telemedicine visits now available for those who want or need to avoid the office.
