Cardiovascular Disease Series - Course 5
by John Nieters
Learn to utilize bedside diagnostics that include conditions that can be detected by a visual examination, key points using a stethoscope, examination of superficial veins on the feet, legs, torso and neck, and advanced blood pressure examination.
Cardiovascular Disease Series - Course 5
Course Overview
This course is part five of a 15-part series that will empower the participant to have a complete re-understanding of the cardiovascular system. Cardiovascular disease is (unnecessarily) the #1 cause of death in the USA.Part five of this course will empower the participant with an understanding of how to perform a comprehensive diagnostic exam in their clinic and to rule out possible cardiovascular issues.
The diagnostic exam can uncover a dozen conditions that can be detected by a visual examination with greater competence using a stethoscope, examination of superficial veins on the feet, legs, torso and neck, and a TCM understanding of a blood pressure examination.
Part five will cover:
(1) Review of the location of the cardiac valves and the differentiation of sounds relating to those valves including sinus rhythm, murmurs, rubs and gallops.
(2) Differential qualities of the radial artery locations including: observation of the carotid arteries, observation of the saphenous veins and other venous structures of the feet and lower legs.
(3) Diagnosis and monitoring of hypovolemia
(4) Biochemistry and treatment of hypovolemia.
