Kursens syfte To provide a comprehensive overview of heart failure, a major public health problem and the most common cause of hospitalisation. The course will address all aspects of the disease, from mechanism and pathophysiology, to how these aspects affect diagnosis and therapeutic effects. The course will also introduce the new developments and future directions of heart failure research.
Kursens lärandemål To be able to define and understand heart failure and its different phenotypes; to be able to understand the pathophysiological basis for diagnosis and therapy; to be able to understand and account for concepts for developing and testing novel interventions; and to demonstrate a good understanding of translational approach between basic research and the development of treatment of heart failure, as well as the principles of registry based research on heart failure.
Kursens innehåll The module will cover pathophysiology, clinical diagnosis and treatments, as well as epidemiology of heart failure. A series of lectures will be given to reveal the molecular and cellular mechanisms of heart failure development, the relations of heart failure to other cardiovascular diseases, and new diagnotic and therapeutic approaches of the disease. Registry based research of heart failure will also be addressed.
