science staff (cardiac physiologist). A cardiac physiologist’s role comprises of recording and analysing a variety of physiological data required to assist in the diagnosis and treatment of different cardiac diseases (Scst.org.uk‚ 2016). They are qualified to perform a range of non-invasive cardiovascular procedures‚ from electrocardiograms to pacemaker and ICD checks which I have observed during placement. In addition‚ cardiac physiologists are also trained to assist in cardiac catheterization

I will present information the patient will need to control her condition in words the patient understands. If the patient understands why she had surgery in the first place‚ what behaviors led to the coronary artery disease‚ the patient should have a greater understanding

Cardiac surgeons are people who do treatments and surgeries to treat people with heart and lung disease. They also deal with vessels and organs. There are a lot of different types of operations. There is heart valve repair and replacements‚ heart defect repair‚ coronary artery bypass‚ aneurysm repair‚ heart transplant‚ lungs (lung disease). They complete the most surgeries in their field. Grey’s Anatomy influenced me because in that show it’s a bunch of different types of surgeons and I liked cardio

The cardiac conduction system of the heart consists of specialized muscle cells that generate and send rhythmic electrical impulses to the myocardium in order for the heart to contract (Cardiac Conduction System‚ 2016). When there is the normal rhythm of the heart it is called sinus rhythm and any deviation from sinus rhythm is called an arrhythmia (Saladin‚ 2012). Electrocardiograms (ECG) record the electrical impulses and help determine when there are any abnormalities in the way the heart functions

Comparing the Cardiac muscle and the Skeletal muscle Differences Similarities Skeletal muscle is usually linked to bones by structures called tendons. Cardiac muscle is found in the heart. They are both important parts to the body. Skeletal muscle cells are usually arranged into cylindrical fibres with multiple nuclei and can be directly controlled by voluntary nerve signals from the nervous system. Cardiac muscle cells are normally shorter and are linked via gap junctions which allow compounds

Muscles are all made of the same materials‚ a type of flexile tissue of thousands narrow tissues that make up all the muscles. There are three types of muscle tissue in the human body which are Cardiac‚ Smooth and Skeletal Muscles. Cardiac Muscles are muscles that conduct‚ forced‚ being completely in heart‚ responsible for pumping activity of heart‚ very heavy and solid. Smooth are non band‚ not under voluntary force found in comfortable organs of body accountable for growth like absorption of food

2 Positive and negative effects of a particular scientific advance Cardiac MRI (Heart MRI) What Is a Heart MRI? A magnetic resonance imaging test (MRI) uses magnets and radio waves to capture images inside your body without making an surgical incision. An MRI allows your doctor to see the soft tissues in your body‚ along with your bones. An MRI can be performed on any part of your body. However‚ a heart or cardiac MRI looks specifically at your heart and the adjacent vessels. Unlike a CT

Most of the cardiac injury ultimately results in development of cardiac fibrosis due to negligible regenerative capacity of heart. Cardiac fibrosis is associated with increased deposition of matrix proteins in the myocardium. The expansion of the cardiac interstitial space in absence of significant cardiomyocyte loss is “reactive interstitial fibrosis” and the formation of scar in response to myocardial infarction is called “reparative fibrosis” [10‚ 46]. Increased deposition of endomysial and perimysial
