To help your patients further understand the heart, their conditions and any procedures they may need to undergo, we have sourced an excellent video library with associated printable material. The library is used and endorsed by a range of respected organisations including the American Heart Association, World Heart Federation, American Society of Echocardiography, European Society of Cardiology, and the American College of Cardiology.
We encourage you to share this with your patients to find information relevant to them, at their convenience.
