Description

  • “Time is muscle”
  • Quick identification of acute cardiac pathologies
  • Critical differences between cardiogenic shock and other types of shock
  • Which aortic dissection patients need emergency surgery? Which don’t?
  • Identify cardiac tamponade using Beck’s triad of symptoms
  • Recognize the first signs of acute cardiac arrhythmias to intervene fast

You’re caring for a stable patient when suddenly she develops tachycardia and hypotension as well as complaints of pain. All are symptoms consistent with acute coronary syndrome, early shock, aortic dissection, tamponade, and various arrhythmias. Which is it?! Acute patient changes require quick assessment and rapid action.

With a thorough understanding of cardiac anatomy and physiology, you can utilize your knowledge in identifying presenting and evolving symptoms, as well as knowing potential risk factors for common pathologies. Fascinating case studies will be used to assist in making the right decisions. This knowledge will allow you to react appropriately and not panic, returning to work with the ability to more quickly determine a differential diagnosis and best prepare patients and families on the expected interventions and course of treatment.
