Cardiology, COVID-19, and College Sports: What Went Wrong
In the inaugural episode of Healthcare Unfiltered, host Chadi Nabhan invites cardiologists Venk Murthy (@venkmurthy), MD, University of Michigan, and Anish Koka (@anish_koka), MD, private practice in Philadelphia, to contextualize the effects of COVID-19 on the heart, as explained in a flawed JAMA Cardiology publication that was close to having such trickle down effects as cancelling college sports across the US. The trio explains how the study should not be used to treat patients with preexisting cardiac conditions and COVID-19, the dangers of using the study as grounds for social policy, the importance of post-publication peer-review (via social media), and much more.
