Mechanical Complications Of MI: Right Ventricular Infarction is organized by CardioVillage.
Publication date: July 11, 2018
Expiration date: July 10, 2024
Description:
Right ventricular infarction typically occurs in the setting of acute right coronary artery occlusion with ST-Elevation MI. In this lesson, we review the basic features of right ventricular infarction.
Course Details:
In this course, you will learn:
• To define the hemodynamics and pathophysiology associated with right ventricular infarction
• To describe the clinical findings in right ventricular infarction with respect to the ECG and clinical features
• To associate the abnormalities measure by right heart catheterization with the patient’s clinical presentation
• To describe the angiographic findings on left ventricullography that suggest a diagnosis of right ventricular infarction
Method and medium:
Learners participate in the interactive learning modules by correctly answering multiple choice questions dispersed throughout. Learners will be prompted to try again if a question is answered incorrectly. The course will open in a new tab – to exit the course, simply close that tab.
Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
