Teach the student to recognise the pathological entities of the
cardiovascular system of surgical interest, to be able to distinguish those
cases to be referred for specialistic surgical evaluation, to know the
surgical procedures with their relative and absolute contraindications and
the related complications

Before attending the coures, the student should be optimally confident
with the anatomy, physiology, pathology, physiopathology and semeiotic
of the cardiovascular system

Front lessons and interactive discussion of clinical cases

At the end of the course, the assessment of learning will take place
through a written assignment with multiple choice questions on theory
and clinical cases. the evaluation will be based on a mark out of thirty
which then results in the overall mark out of thirty, expression of a
weighted average with a final evaluation shared by the teachers of the
individual modules. The exam is passed when the final mark is 18 or
higher. The assignment of the highest marks with honors (30 with
honors) is envisaged.
