Heart Information
The dominance of heart disease as Scotland's biggest killer is being forcefully challenged as the healthier lifestyle message —eat sensibly, exercise more, stop smoking, drink less—takes hold.
Chest, Heart & Stroke Scotland (CHSS) delivers that message to communities throughout the country and funds a range of innovative research projects in Scotland's hospitals and universities.
Cardiologists in Scotland are looking for your views on heart failure care. If you have a diagnosis of Chronic Heart Failure please follow the link to complete a short on-line survey to share your views on your care. www.chfpatientsurvey.com
