Cardiology and Cardiac Nursing

Diagnosis tests & Procedures in cardiology

Cardiac marker diagnostic testing measures the concentration of certain proteins, i.e., biomarkers, which indicate the presence or severity of cardiovascular disease .Among the most prevalent CVDs are sudden cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction congestive heart failure and atherosclerosis. Every year, an estimated 17 million people worldwide die from a CVD. This study also provides a thorough analysis of the companies known to be marketing, manufacturing or developing cardiac marker products in the U.S. and worldwide, as well as detailed tables, charts and figures covering the U.S., Europe and Asia markets. Cardiac biomarkers evaluate the heart function and aid in identifying the complexity and severity of procedures further required to treat the cardiovascular disease. The primary indications for cardiovascular diseases are Acute Coronary Syndrome which includes Angina Pectoris and Acute Myocardial Infraction Congestive Heart Failure, Peripheral Artery Disease and others. 

Echocardiogram, indicate as a cardiac echo, sonogram of the heart. Echocardiography customizes standard two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and Doppler ultrasound to create images of the heart. Auscultation is a skill that needs clinical experience, a noval stethoscope and excellent listening skills. Sphygmomanometer is a device used to measure and analyse the blood pressure, Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging is a medical imaging procedure for the non-invasive analysis of the function and structure of the cardiovascular system. A Cardiac catheterization is an invasive procedure to access the coronary circulation and blood filled chambers of the heart using a catheter. Cardiac Nursing session also contains Echocardiography, Transthoracic echocardiogram, Transoesophageal echocardiogram, cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging, Cardiac stress test, Auscultation, Sphygmomanometer, Optical coherence tomography, Coronary catheterization.
