Dr. Prakash and his research team joined us for a Q & A session devoted to exercise and lifestyle while living with an aortic dissection. Dr. Prakash is a cardiologist and co-director of the Multidisciplinary Aortic and Vascular Disease Clinic. He is currently conducting a clinical trial studying the mental and physical benefits of exercise in patients who survived a type A or type B aortic dissection. This research is funded by the John Ritter Foundation for Aortic Health.
