Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Cardiovascular Health Policy: Discussion

Mr. Neil Johnson:

I will let Ms Gibson respond to the Senator on the question of behavioural change and screening. In the context of echocardiograms, one of the biggest challenges right now is the availability of cardiac physiologists, those who conduct these tests. We do not have enough of these in the country.
