Cardiology

Dive into an extensive 18-hour course covering the fundamentals and advanced concepts of cardiology. Explore a comprehensive curriculum that includes the approach to cardiac patients, heart sounds interpretation, valve disorders, cardiomyopathies, and heart failure management. Examine ischemia, coronary heart disease, hypertension, hypotension, and congenital heart defects. Study endocardial, myocardial, and pericardial diseases, as well as peripheral vascular disorders. Master ECG interpretation, including lead placement, waveform analysis, and vector concepts. Learn to recognize normal ECG patterns, analyze ECG axis, identify arrhythmias, conduction blocks, infarctions, and electrolyte abnormalities. Engage in practical ECG exercises and gain in-depth knowledge of various cardiac arrhythmias to enhance your diagnostic and clinical skills in cardiology.
