This course reviews cardiovascular diseases for those students interested in cardiology. New topics (e.g. valvular disease) will be introduced, and previous topics discussed in required courses will be further augmented. Topics will focus on diagnostics and procedures, cardiovascular pharmacotherapy, and the role of the cardiology pharmacist. Active learning strategies and high-fidelity simulations are highly employed.
