Medical disclaimer

Last updated: [PENDING INFORMATION — publication date]

This site provides general information and does not replace evaluation by a health professional. In a medical emergency, contact your local emergency services immediately.

1. Informational, not diagnostic, in nature

All content on this site — including procedure descriptions, preparation instructions and answers to frequently asked questions — is general and informational in nature. It does not constitute a medical diagnosis, treatment, or personalized recommendation for any particular case.

2. Every case requires an individual evaluation

The indication of a study or procedure, as well as its preparation and follow-up care, always depends on an individual medical evaluation carried out by the treating team. Information on this site should not be used to make decisions about your health without consulting a professional.

3. This site does not replace a medical consultation

Browsing this site, filling out a form, or receiving a response from SAH does not equal a medical consultation, nor does it, by itself, create a physician-patient relationship.

4. Emergencies

If you experience symptoms of a cardiovascular emergency (for example, intense chest pain, difficulty breathing, loss of consciousness) do not use this site as a contact channel: contact your local emergency services immediately. See Emergency information.

5. Blog content

Blog articles are medically reviewed before publication and are also general and informational in nature, subject to this same disclaimer.
