Kennedy Saves Young Athletes

Published 3 years, 8 months ago
Description

On this episode, Kennedy sits down with the Director of Pediatric Cardiology at St. Francis Hospital in Roslyn, NY Dr. Sean Levchuck to discuss heart health amongst young athletes.


Dr. Levchuck weighs in on the tragic collapse and cardiac arrest of the Buffalo Bills' Safety Damar Hamlin during a game against the Cincinnati Bengals at the beginning of January. He claims the overwhelming impression is that Hamlin may have suffered Commotio Cordis caused by a chest wall impact at just the right time of vulnerability.


Later, Dr. Levchuck predicts whether Hamlin will ever return to the field.
