Treatment and management of cardiac sarcoidosis

Conclusion: The management of active cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) requires regular follow-up to assess patients’ response to their individualised treatment plan. Furthermore, clinical monitoring is important to detect changes or early recurrence of CS. Cardiac specialist nurses are vital to coordinate the management and monitoring of CS, to facilitate communication between CS-patients and CS-clinicians, and to minimise the impact of CS in patients’ quality of life.
