A very informative session was provided by Kathryn Carver, Lead Heart Function Nurse at CUH, followed by lots of useful questions (and answers!). Kathryn provided advice about living with reduced heart function, what different medications do to help, and told us how cardiac rehabilitation is a great way to increase activity and improve symptoms.

Following on from that, we’re delighted that we will be joined by Alan Darby from the Cardiac Rehabilitation service at our next meeting in January. If you’d like to find about more about staying active while living with a cardiac device, please come along!
