Two years ago we published our seminal meta-analysis on risk factors of long covid- cited 548 times & the WHO guidelines @JAMA.com

jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Females, elderly, smokers, obese, comorbidities & hospitalisation had higher risk

One thing protected from long covid: vaccination

Risk Factors for Post−COVID-19 Condition This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the findings of 41 studies with a total of 860 783 patients to identify risk factors associated with post−COVID-19 condition.

Welcome to Ensuring Success with Heart Failure 2025!

Kicking off for the first session Dr Caroline Coats covers NT-proBNP in clinical practice:

🫀 Useful summary of what factors affect the result
🫀raised NT-proBNP =/= HF!!
🫀 Excellent negative predictive value ✅

#CardioSky #MedSky

Professor Mark Petrie takes us through detecting the aetiology of heart failure

🫀 need to do more digging rather than label of HFpEF or HFrEF
🫀 be comprehensive - genetics, drugs
🫀 Inflammatory cardiomyopathies are more common than you think!

#CardioSky #MedSky #EchoSky

Dr Eilidh Hill shares some geriatric perspective pearls of wisdom on managing frailty and HF:

🫀 Comprehensive strategy to identify and correct problems
🫀HF + frailty = worse outcomes🫀 Most important to IDENTIFY frailty
