The Children's Cardiac Safety Act

Issue #28 of "What's Her Problem?": You can help ensure ‘well-child’ and student-athlete pre-participation exams include cardiac screenings.

Part 4 of my 5-part series of Heart Month posts, bringing awareness to a variety of topics in cardiology.

This week’s questions:

Does your state have Children’s Cardiac Safety Act legislation enacted yet? If not, will you send a letter to your representatives asking them to consider it?
