Description: |
The Digital Health Equity in Heart Failure Fellowship at UHN is a 1-year fellowship designed to enhance heart failure knowledge and skills for Cardiology fellows in the care of patients with advanced heart failure with both reduced and preserved ejection fraction due to multiple etiologies. Fellows will learn the interpretation and application of diagnostic procedures, device therapy and pharmacologic therapy for heart failure. Outreach clinics in remote and Indigenous communities will also allow the fellow to apply skills in these settings, integrate digital health tools into clinical management and work with community partners to increase access to care. In addition to clinical expertise, trainees will also have the opportunity to pursue academic or scholarly activity in the area of digital innovation to increase equitable access to heart failure care with appropriate supervision. |
