Cardiovascular disorders are prevalent in primary
care. Many of the disorders develop over several
years, due to the risk factors to which individuals have
been exposed. For each disorder covered in this unit,
a discussion of risk factors will be included. For the
concepts covered below, clinical application of each
disease will be provided so that students can
understand the importance of pathophysiology in
diagnosing and treating the disease.
Prerequisite knowledge:
For this content, you should have a basic knowledge
of cardiac anatomy; know the differences between
the right and left sides of the heart, in terms of
structure and function. You should also possess solid
Cardiovascular disorders
knowledge of the unidirectional blood flow through
the heart. For example, deoxygenated blood arrives
to the right side of the heart, travels to the pulmonary
arteries to release CO2 and pick up oxygen. At this
point, the oxygenated blood is carried from the lungs
through the pulmonary veins to the left side of the
heart where it eventually reaches the aorta to carry
oxygenated blood out to the body organs. The
cellular physiology related to cardiac contraction is
another important basic concept to know, as
electrolytes (sodium, potassium and calcium) play a
major role in muscle contraction. Finally, the concepts
of preload, afterload, and contractility are essential to
understand, as all of these can be affected in some
way when a person has cardiovascular disease.
