As the year ends, most people look back at milestones.
In cardiology, the more important question is quieter — what did we catch early, and what did we miss?
Heart disease rarely announces itself dramatically. It appears in patterns — fatigue that feels “normal”, breathlessness blamed on age, chest discomfort dismissed as acidity.
Year-end is not just a time for reflection.
It’s a reminder that delayed clarity costs more than delayed action when it comes to the heart.
Over time, outcomes improve not because technology changes overnight, but because decisions are made earlier, with better information.
As we step into a new year, preventive awareness matters as much as treatment.
Not every heart problem can be prevented — but many can be detected before they become emergencies.
A good moment to pause, review, and listen more closely to what the body has been signalling all along.
