| Information - Remembers the anatomy, physiology and histology knowledge about coronary arteries, major vessels, and heart valves. Forms a differential diagnosis list by integrating the history taken by using effective communication abilities, physical examination, and diagnostic tests. Explains physiopathology and reasons of the cardiovascular system symptoms and their association with other systems. Expresses and interprets frequently encountered clinical, laboratory and pathologic findings of coronary artery disease, heart failure, hypertension, and atrial fibrillation. Explains general epidemiologic features and preventive measures in coronary artery disease, heart failure, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, acute rheumatic fever, and venous embolism and thrombosis. Recalls as a pre-diagnosis by using specifications obtained with history and physical examination and refers to the specialist for further investigation and treatment where required in heart valve diseases, arrhythmias, endocarditis, myocarditis, cardiomyopathies, pulmonary embolism, pulmonary hypertension, pericardial effusion, and aortic aneurysm and dissection. Reach the diagnosis by interpreting the diagnostic test results, consults and follows by explaining risk factors and expresses the preventive measures targeting the decrease in the frequency of the disease in heart failure, coronary artery disease, and hypertension. After having the diagnosis with the utilization of appropriate diagnostic tests, plans the treatment in line with rational drug use principles; and explains the basic features and severe side effects of these drugs in heart failure and hypertension. Explains the clinical features of life-threatening conditions like acute coronary syndromes, acute heart failure, hypertensive emergency, pulmonary embolism, ventricular malignant arrhythmias, bradyarrhythmias like complete AV block, and aortic dissection, manages emergent treatment and lists further diagnostic tests and transfer criteria. Can count the procedural steps of pericardiocentesis. | 10, 16, 9 | A, D, H |
| Skills - Can perform physical examination of the cardiovascular system. Measures blood pressure. Obtains and interprets the ECG. Can administer electrical treatments restoring normal rhythm (cardioversion/defibrillation). | 10, 16, 9 | A, D |
| Attitude - Uses the diagnostic modalities from simple to complex ones. Applies rational drug use principles. Communicates with patients, patient representatives, and colleagues in an effective manner both in written and oral language. Understands the significance of the multidisciplinary approach in the management of hypertension, aortic diseases, and coronary artery disease. Uses evidence-based medicine and self-learning skills during performing the daily practice as a practitioner. Follows the update literature. Appreciates human and patient rights and adopts the principles of protection of personal data. | 10, 16, 9 | A, D, H |
