Episode 10 – Cardiac Issues in Pregnancy
Oct 27, 2022 Season 1 Episode 10

So good to have your company again, for our final cardiology-themed episode (for the time being at least). Today I’m thrilled to say that we’re joined by the brilliant Dr Lucy MacKillop to discuss cardiac issues in pregnancy. It’s perhaps not a topic that leaps to mind when you consider cardiology topics to revise, but it’s an area that we really do need to have a solid understanding of, as well as being a fascinating area of medicine.

Dr MacKillop is a consultant obstetric physician in the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, who trained in Oxford, London and Sydney before taking up her consultant post in 2008. She is a widely published author of academic material, book chapters and educational resources, and is the perfect person to help us gain a better grasp on the most concerning cardiac issues that women might experience in pregnancy, and how we should manage these when we see them.

We’ve loved hearing feedback from lots of you who have been tuning in to these episodes week by week. Please keep sharing the podcast with your friends, family and colleagues! And if you’d like to say hi, you can find us on Twitter @medregnews, or by dropping us an email at medregnews@gmail.com. Hope you’re enjoying life on the wards as much as ever, and we can’t wait to chat with you again same time next week!
