| Description | This resource is intended to supplement texts in cardiovascular physiology. The resource uses a Question and Answer format, and a good proportion of the questions are clinical vignettes - thus the title. The application of several physiologic facts and principles to common and uncommon cardiovascular conditions is exemplified. The perspective of this resource is that of physiology and pathophysiology, not clinical medicine. Thus, the reader should not infer clinical diagnostic or treatment protocol for gastrointestinal conditions from this. It is not intended to cover all classic topics that can be found in chapters on cardiovascular physiology in commonly used medical physiology textbooks. Additional self-assessment questions of the multiple-choice type are at the end. | |||

This resource comprehensively covers many topics in clinical cardiology in a question and answer format. Real world examples of patient presentation are given, and extensive answers provided to help the reader understand the key underlying physiologic principles responsible. Fifty-seven questions with long answers are provided in the first section, followed by twenty-five multiple choice questions with answer key and explanations for each correct answer.
