Impacts of Avoiding Emergency Department Visits During the COVID-19 Pandemic Among Patients With Acute Ischemic Heart Events

These findings highlight the indirect impact of the pandemic on critical care access, even in regions with low prevalence. Medical avoidance reduced ED visits but increased the risk of complications of acute ischemic heart. Addressing barriers to timely care and implementing targeted response strategies are essential to ensure access to life-saving treatments and mitigate long-term adverse health consequences during public health crises.

Abstract

These findings highlight the indirect impact of the pandemic on critical care access, even in regions with low prevalence. Medical avoidance reduced ED visits but increased the risk of complications of acute ischemic heart. Addressing barriers to timely care and implementing targeted response strategies are essential to ensure access to life-saving treatments and mitigate long-term adverse health consequences during public health crises.
