Article Synopsis
- The COVID-19 pandemic significantly disrupted healthcare delivery, especially in hospital admissions for cardiovascular issues.
- Data from Hamad Medical Corporation hospitals in Qatar showed a notable decrease in cardiovascular admissions, with acute myocardial infarction dropping by 31% and unstable angina by 79%.
- Despite the reduced admissions, the overall death rate remained unchanged, suggesting that fear of COVID-19 and lockdown measures may have deterred patients from seeking necessary cardiac care.
