Cardiovascular Emergencies Module

 

Introduction:

Welcome to the Emergency Medicine Core Training Cardiovascular Emergencies module. In this module, we will review the function of the CV system and the work-up and management of disorders related to this system. Developing a differential diagnosis based on symptoms and signs related to CV disorders will almost always include potential diagnoses from other systems of the body. When this is the case, there will be links to sections of other modules, so you can go there to learn terms or concepts you may not be familiar with. To be adept at diagnosing and treating CV disorders, you must have a strong working knowledge of this system. That being the case, we will start, as in all EMCT modules, with a discussion of basic anatomy and physiology before delving into pathophysiology and treatment of various emergency disorders, and before we ultimately carry out the work-up and management of chief complaint related clinical scenarios.
