Cardiovascular System (CVS) Module 3rd Year

📘Step 1. Curriculum Coverage

This topic introduces the biological and public-health foundation of coronary artery disease. It links lipid metabolism, atherosclerotic plaque formation, CVD risk factors, population epidemiology, prevention, and lipid-lowering pharmacology.

🔬 Pathology

 

• Discuss the risk factors, morphology, pathological changes and consequences of atherosclerotic plaque

💊 Pharmacology

 

  • Briefly describe the types of dyslipidemias
    • List the lipid-lowering drug classes
    • Explain the mechanism of action, effect on serum lipid profile and adverse effects of each of the five lipid-lowering drug classes
    • Discuss drug-drug interactions of lipid-lowering drug

 

🌍 Community Medicine

 

  • Define cardiovascular disease
    • Elaborate the concept of CVD risk stratification
    • Describe the epidemiology of cardiovascular diseases and explain cardiovascular diseases of public-health importance globally and in Pakistan
    • Explain the known risk factors of CVD and cultural, racial and gender differences in CVD prevalence and incidence
    • Describe the epidemiology of hypertension and its public-health importance globally and in Pakistan

🔁 Basic Science Spiral Link

🔹 Biochemistry

• Classify and describe the types of lipoproteins
• Summarize cholesterol synthesis

🩺 Clinical Integration

 

• Discuss CAD risk factors and strategies to reduce them
• Discuss strategies for primary and secondary prevention of coronary heart disease in the outpatient setting
