In new study, Penn researchers find racial and socioeconomic disparities in heart arrhythmia care

Lauren Eberly of the Leonard Davis Institute was interviewed about a study that found disparities in care for atrial fibrillation, which can lead to heart failure and stroke if left untreated. “We [healthcare professionals] need to redesign our system so that it prioritizes those who have been historically marginalized,” she said. “If we don’t, these disparities will compound and continue to be perpetuated.”
