Cardiac Function Course
This course provides essential training on cardiac pressure-volume loops, preload, afterload, contractility, and lusitropy. It equips learners with skills to interpret key metrics like ESPVR, EDPVR, and stroke work, recognize early left ventricular and diastolic dysfunction, and translate complex physiology into practical clinical insights for patients with hypertension, subtle symptoms, and normal-range ejection fraction. Ideal for immediate application in cardiology.

What will I learn?
This course offers a focused review of left ventricular pressure-volume loops, preload, afterload, contractility, and lusitropy. Participants will learn to interpret ESPVR and EDPVR, calculate stroke work, identify early diastolic dysfunction, and apply physiological concepts to patient cases involving hypertension, mild symptoms, and preserved ejection fraction.
