This course expands upon the basic foundations of Clinical Pharmacology previously mastered in CVSPG 581 by the Cardiovascular Perfusion student. Students will be expected to demonstrate the ability to recognize and evaluate the impact of medications on specific patient disease processes and determine how those effects impact the patient’s functional status. The core concentration of this course will be on the pharmacology most relevant to the cardiovascular patient, with a strong emphasis on the pathophysiological basis for drug therapy.
