Cardiology

Evaluation of your heart’s health and function is crucial to cardiology tests. We at MS Medical Care provide advanced cardiology tests in Mumbai to find, monitor and minimize recurring heart related problems before they grow serious. These tests allow our specialists to see how well your heart is doing and help find problems with its rhythm, blood flow or structure and treat problems early.

When people have such symptoms, like chest pain, shortness of breath, fatigue or irregular heartbeat, they often have cardiology tests. Still, it is still important to get a routine screening, even if you don’t have any symptoms and, this is all the more critical for people with risk factors for the disease, including high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking or a family history of heart disease.

ECG, 2D Echo, TMT, lipid profile and much more — each makes up our cardiology services as you'll be able to see a complete picture of your heart’s health. Through these tests, our expert heart specialists can detect any problems early and plan exactly the treatment or prevention plan we need.

In Poland, becoming a specialist in cardiology typically involves completing a medical degree followed by a residency program in internal medicine, which lasts for about five years. After obtaining a title in internal medicine, physicians must then complete an additional three years of specialized training in cardiology. This training includes practical clinical experience, participation in medical conferences, and ongoing education to keep abreast of advancements in the field. Candidates must also pass a certification exam to officially become cardiology specialists.

Streptococcus viridans is responsible for sub acute bacterial endocarditis. This is relatively a benign organism, which is responsible for dental caries. It can affect the damaged heart valves and cause the above mentioned condition. Which is very difficult to cure, once established. You have to give two grams of amoxicillin about one hour prior to dental procedure to prevent this condition in such patients.

Low voltage on an EKG typically indicates a decrease in the electrical activity recorded from the heart, which can be caused by a variety of factors such as obesity, chronic lung disease, pericardial effusion, or poor contact between the skin and EKG electrodes. It is important to follow up with a healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause and appropriate management.

In cardiology, competency refers to the knowledge, skills, and abilities required to provide high-quality care to patients with heart-related conditions. This includes a deep understanding of cardiac anatomy and physiology, the ability to interpret diagnostic tests accurately, and proficiency in performing procedures such as catheterizations and pacemaker implantations. Cardiologists must demonstrate ongoing competency through continuing medical education and maintaining board certifications.

Claude Schaeffer Beck was the first to describe the physiological basis of the triad of medical signs associated with acute cardiac tamponade: 1) low blood pressure, 2) elevated central venous pressure, and 3) distant heart sounds.

It depends on the theme we´re talking about. General Cardiology perhaps has its gold standard in Braunwald´s. But in real life, it´s not a practic one for using the whole time.

A cardiology doctor specifically deals with the heart. The Physicians that have studied in only this field are cardiologists. Cardiologists can even help possibly prevent a heart attack if caught in time. They are very important doctors and help save alot of people when caught in time!

The cardiovascular system, which consists of the heart and lungs (cardiovascular system also includes veins and arteries).

Cardiology is one of the branches of medicine that deals with heart related issues.

Today, in order to provide the quality care to patients, cardiologists are ensuring use of Electronic Health Records. One of the advantages of electronic documentation would be the reduction in increasing number of fatalities, thereby improving overall quality of healthcare.

Left ear or aortic stenosis, depending on the context.

You need to firstly graduate from college. Then you need to complete a medical degree in order to get either an MD or a DO. Then you need to do a residency in Cardiology.

All I know is that average girls aged 12 would have a resting heart rate (RHR) of 80, and one of 14 would have a RHR of 85.

If it's higher then the average RHR (Per minute) then that would be bad. Lower would be good.

Although I am 14, and mine is 70, yet I'm not that athletic, I'm a fast runner, but that at the most.

Most places will cost about $50000 a year to study pathology, in a 3 year program it would be about $150000 to complete the courses needed to graduate and become a pathologist.

The P wave on ECG corresponds to electrical depolarization of the atria. It should be positive in lead II and negative in aVR when the P wave originates in the sinoatrial node.

A Littlmann Cardiology III stethoscope is not as expensive as it could be when found at the right location. Medical sites will typically charge more for their items. Meanwhile, sites like Amazon have these stethoscopes anywhere from $75 to 150 with the average being around 110 dollars.

EMR

Median annual earnings of cardiovascular technologists and technicians were $42,300 in May 2006. The middle 50 percent earned between $29,900 and $55,670. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $23,670, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $67,410. Median annual earnings of cardiovascular technologists and technicians in 2006 were $41,960 in offices of physicians and $41,950 in general medical and surgical hospitals.

Relieve the pressure off the heart by removing the excess fluid or blood.

This is performed either by pericardiocentesis, which is the procedure where a large needle is inserted into the pericardium and the blood/fluid is removed. If the cause is an injury to the heart itself, this may be enough of a temporizing measure (but definitely not curative) to allow the patient to have the time to make it to the operating room with a cardiac surgeon who can repair the injury. If the patient loses vital signs in the Emergency room and is not stable enough to go to the operating room (OR), an emergency thoracotomy may need to be performed. The left chest is opened emergently and the pericardium is entered primarily in an effort to find the damage to the heart and repair it temporarily to allow the patient to go to the OR for primary repair and closure.

Unfortunately, hemopericardium and tamponade caused by primary cardiac rupture/injury is not something most will survive, and emergency thoracotomy has a survival rate of less than 5 percent (probably on the order of 1 to 2 percent survival). It really is a last-ditch effort to save someone's life, but in most cases is not successful, despite a physician's best efforts.

Around 23,000 Cardiologists across US.

The walls of your heart are about half an inch thick pretty thick huh!
