The Cardiovascular-Respiratory course introduces students to common clinical problems in cardiovascular and respiratory medicine. Cardiac and respiratory disorders often present with similar symptoms and frequently co-exist in the same patient. This course emphasizes the highly integrated physiology and pathophysiology underlying common clinical presentations. It provides opportunities for students to develop skills in clinical assessment and reasoning, and approaches to managing common conditions.
