Patients undergoing cancer treatment may expect to get a recommendation for chemotherapy or radiation therapy. But cardiac rehabilitation?
It turns out research shows cardiac rehab can benefit patients undergoing cancer treatment. Dr. Kristopher Swiger, a Wilmington-based cardiologist with Novant Health Heart & Vascular Institute, is focused on monitoring heart health for patients at every stage of the cancer treatment process. And yes, those consultations may lead to patients heading to cardiac rehab.
In this episode of Meaningful Medicine, Novant Health's podcast, Dr. Swiger explains the field of cardio-oncology and explores the link between heart health and cancer.
