In this episode of Arthritis At Home, we are sharing the #CRAthritis interview with Dr. Sasha Bernatsky, a rheumatologist, James McGill Professor and senior scientist at the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre.
Dr. Bernatsky shares the key findings from her research abstract poster on the link between Air Pollution and the development of Systemic Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases. She provides an overview of what people living with arthritis should be aware of when it comes to air pollution exposure. In addition, Dr. Bernatsky answers questions about her research on Hydroxychloroquine Retinal Monitoring in Canada. She looks at why regular retinal screening is also important for people taking hydroxychloroquine and what are the risks if it is not done.
