The surprising heart-brain connection

  • Summary

  • Your heart and brain are deeply interconnected. So, if you experience a heart condition or stroke, both your heart and brain can potentially be affected. Despite this, the Canadian medical system remains siloed, resulting in missed diagnoses and opportunities for prevention. 



    Listen to this episode of The Beat as we dive into the unexpected heart-brain connection... We hear from Kelly, who experienced chest pain for 15 years before having two strokes, leading doctors to diagnose her with a dangerous heart condition. We also hear from Patrice Lindsay, Director of Health Systems at Heart &Stroke, who explains how the Canadian healthcare system must adapt in order to provide better care.
