Where can I find a CD, software or a internet program that teaches Cardiovascular related procedures eg. EKG, PTCA and cardiac pharmacology?

Which schools offer Cardiovascular Technology?

it really depends on the area you live in but its a vigorus course and you have to meet criteria to get into the program.
they make between 37,440-50,000. At Valencia Community College it is a two year program with an associates degree.
Not bad earning for two years but go to the link below and check out the course load.

My science homework is proving a little hard! Can anyone help me out???
The actual question is "Describe how you could attempt to measure cardiovascular efficiency?" Am I stupid or is this really such a hard question?

I’ll point you i the right direction. One of the measures used to assess an athletes cardiovascular efficiency is VO2 max. or volume of oxygen uptake.

Have a look around the net for that.

[Edit. I think I might have jumped in there with an over technical answer. Resting heart rate and working heart rate at a given workload can also be indicators of a persons cardiovascular efficiency]

How might moderate alcohol consumption reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease?

1. In moderation, the consumption of alcohol lowers LDL and promotes blood clotting.

2. Taken in moderation, alcohol lowers blood HDL and inhibits blood clotting.

3. In moderation, the consumption of alcohol raises HDL and inhibits blood clotting.

4. Taken in moderation, alcohol increases HDL and decreases LDL.

5. In moderation, the phytochemicals in alcohol reduce blood levels of LDL and triglycerides.

Red Wine is high in antioxdinants,spirits are full of sugar and increase your heartrate,beer full of carbs and increase your waist size..if you have to have a drink 2 glasses of red.

During the winter, I swim all the time on a swim team, so I am a decent swimmer and I get a good workout then. I would like to swim off-season to get in shape, not necessarily to work on my swimming, but more to get in good cardiovascular shape and to lose some weight.
So, does anyone have a good workout I could follow? Thanks!!

I have that same problem: What to do on the off season. Well, I go biking every other day for 45 minutes to an hour. Then I weight lifts. On the other days, I run, and then weight lifts. With the running and biking it helps keep you in shape for swim. When you start up again, you will feel like you are really out of shape, but you are just using different muscles. Also, do ab workouts, like crunches, and then leg lifts and v-sits, pikes and bikes. If you strengthen up your abs, your turns will be faster, and your times will improve.

I graduated in college of medicine in Northern Iraq and i want to study cardiovascular surgery in USA, can you tell me even very briefly what is required from me and how can i get it?

1) You’ll need to pass the USMLE exams
2) Then, you’ll need to get into a surgical residency program
3) As you do well in the residency, get a CV surgery fellowshp

I have to describe the structure and functions of the the cardiovascular system and the respiratory system. I can manage that but I now need to link the two systems, ie how they work together. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. My brain has gone numb, and I just cannot get my head around it. Sooo fuzzy with revision and course work. Thank you. Also, any ideas where I can find good diagrams of both these systems. Thanks again.

Your cardiovascular system carries blood out of your heart and through your lungs to be reoxygenated, and then dispenses it throughout your body though different vessels. It then returns to be oxygenated again.

I am conflicted whether to perform more cardiovascular excercise (treadmills, ellipticals) or do a cross-train cardiovascular/weights session to lose weight in general? Most of the men’s magazines mention to do a weight routine, but alot of people have told me to stick to the treadmill. What are your thoughts?

you should cross train because with the cardiovascular then you will get your heart rate up burning calories. but by building muscle mass using weights you will burn calories when you aren’t working out
