Cardiac sonographer also known as echocardiographer , or cardiac ultrasound technologist is a medical profession of sonographer s that specialize in the anatomy and function of the heart . It is a technical job that in the USA has traditionally required an Associates degree in Echo and passing a National Registry exam, but more and more often is requiring a Bachelors degree as the field gets more developed and complicated. Much like how a general sonographer would use sonography ultrasound to view a fetus inside a pregnant woman, cardiac sonographers use the same technology to examine and evaluate the heart chamber sizes, arrangement of the parts, muscle function, valve function and blood flow. Cardiac sonographers typically do not make diagnoses, but rather report their results to a cardiologist for further analysis. Educational requirements in U.S. Most schools that offer training for cardiac sonographers have several different programs available to students. Programs that are certificate based can be completed in about twelve 12 months allowing the candidate to make a relatively quick entrance into their chosen career. However, some students may choose to pursue a full four year degree in order to allow them to work at more advanced levels but most commonly, the course of study for those pursuing the cardiac sonographer profession is the two year associate s degree. Typically, an associate s degree satisfies the minimum educational requirement for most employers.

Cardiac nursing is a nursing specialty that works with patients who suffer from various conditions of the cardiovascular system. Cardiac nurses help treat conditions such as unstable Angina pectoris angina , cardiomyopathy , coronary artery disease , congestive heart failure , myocardial infarction and cardiac dysrhythmia under the direction of a cardiologist. Cardiac nurses perform postoperative care on a surgical unit, stress test evaluations, cardiac monitoring, vascular monitoring, and health assessments. Cardiac nurses must have Basic Life Support and Advanced Cardiac Life Support certification. In addition, cardiac nurses must possess specialized skills including electrocardiogram monitoring, defibrillation , and medication administration by continuous Intravenous therapy intravenous drip. Cardiac nurses work in many different environments, including coronary care unit s CCU , cardiac catheterization , intensive care unit s ICU , operating theatre s, cardiac rehabilitation centers, clinical research , cardiac surgery wards, cardiovascular intensive care unit s CVICU , and cardiac medical wards.

The cardiac skeleton , sometimes called the fibrous skeleton of the heart , is the structure of dense connective tissue in the heart that separates the Atrium heart atria from the ventricle heart ventricles . The cardiac skeleton establishes an electrically impermeable boundary to autonomic influence within the heart. General form and anatomy The cardiac skeleton consists of four dense bands of tough elastic tissue that encircle the bases of the pulmonary trunk, aorta, and heart valves. ref Martini Anatomy and Physiology, 5th ed. ref While not a true skeleton , it does provide structure and support for the heart, as well as isolating the atria from the ventricles. This allows the AV node and AV bundle to delay the wave of depolarisation such that the atria can contract and assist in ventricular filling before the ventricles themselves depolarise and contract the AV bundle is the only part of the conduction system that passes from the atria to the ventricles in a normal heart .
