Dr. Yousif Ahmad (@narrowcomplex) is a Cardiology Specialty Registrar in London, predominantly working at the Hammersmith Hospital which is one
of London’s eight 'Heart Attack Centres', offering a 24/7 primary angioplasty
service and a 'Primary Arrhythmia' service. Yousif is currently involved in coronary physiology research, and is passionate about medical education. He is teaming up with Pondering EM for the 'Paging the Cardiology Registrar' series, which will equip the junior ED doctor with the nitty gritty for key cardiac presentations, and importantly, explain what our cardiology colleagues are really interested in when they receive a phone call from the ED.

The first thing I would like to speak about

unavoidable changes encountered over the last few years.
