The Heart of Complex Cardiac Care Strategies for Rapid Action

In today’s cardiology world full of technology dependence, it can be easy to get caught up in what machines and test results are telling us versus what the patient is feeling or trying to explain. That’s not to say that you should ignore the numbers, but rather take all the information in to strategize a treatment plan best equipped for your patient!

Treat the patient, not the rhythm…

Attend this ground-breaking online course and gain the skills you need to recognize early signs of cardiac trouble and identify appropriate interventions to prevent further deterioration for your patients.

With a combined experience of over 45 years, two hand-picked experts come together to give you:

Accurately interpret cardiac rhythms
Evaluate appropriate treatment strategies for high-risk ECG findings
Analyze management options for acute coronary syndromes
Communicate the diagnosis, evaluation, and management of inflammatory cardiac disease
Distinguish differences between life-threatening arrhythmias
Plan appropriate nursing care for patients with myocardial ischemia
And SO much more!

Bonus! Register today and we’ll also include The ABCDs of the Cardiac Medicine Cabinet online digital seminar training absolutely FREE!

Walk away feeling confident in the quality of cardiac care you can provide to your patients with complex cardiac conditions and co-morbidities.
