Running a cardiology consult service during a pandemic: Experiences from the front lines

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Millions of deaths worldwide have been attributed to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). As case counts increased in the United States and resurgence occurred in Europe, health care systems across the country prepared for the influx of acutely ill patients. In response to this, our cardiology consult service was called to aid in the management of COVID-19 patients. We describe our experiences and the changes that were implemented.
