About this episode
This week we move into the realm of public health for congenital heart care when we review a recent report on a novel approach to tackling the daunting task of enhancing access to care for congenital heart disease to all who need it in a limited resource region. We speak with Ms. Bistra Zheleva of Children's HeartLink and Professor Krishna Kumar of Amrita Institute in Cocchin, India about a recent report on how a large group of professionals have used a private/public cooperative approach based on education and novel modern methods to rapidly care for children with congenital heart disease, resulting in meaningful reductions in infant mortality as well as improvements in care throughout the congenital heart patient lifespan. Prepare to be inspired by this extraordinary tale. DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/gh.1034
