FELLOWSHIP IN CLINICAL CARDIOLOGY

The Fellowship in Clinical Cardiology offered by MGA Medical Global Academy is an advanced clinical training course for MBBS doctors and healthcare professionals aiming to enhance their skill set in the field of diagnosis and management of cardiovascular diseases. This is a 12-month structured fellowship, which offers a solid foundation for the evidence-based practice of cardiology, with both academic learning and practical clinical exposure. The programme includes the following aspects: Prevention of coronary artery disease, acute coronary syndrome, heart failure, cardiomyopathies, arrhythmias, valvular heart disease, cardiovascular emergencies. Participants are also introduced to state-of-the-art cardiac imaging, echo, cardiac MRI & CT, electrophysiology and intensive cardiac care and current patient-centred treatment strategies.

Skills You Will Gain

• Knowledge in cardiovascular physiology, pathophysiological mechanisms and clinical cardiology practice.

• Cardiovascular examination, diagnosis and evidence-based patient management skills.

• Comprehension of coronary artery disease (CAD), acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and interventional cardiology procedures.

• Understanding about heart failure management, cardiomyopathies and prevention of heart disease.

• A deep understanding of the mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmia and electrophysiological disorders, and their management.

• Exposure to advanced echocardiographic, cMRI, and CT imaging techniques
