Dr. Andrew Jenzer joins us today as we kick off our series focused on medicine by doing a deep dive into cardiology and some of the most important aspects that all levels of residents and practicing surgeons need to know about. This episode and the ones that follow in the same vein are designed to maximize learning, and as such, we explore some of the most useful terms on the subject, safety precautions for medication, and related conditions and concerns. We delve into managing hypertension, issues with blood pressure, EKG interpretation, atrial fibrillation, and more, with Dr. Jenzer taking the time to approach these areas in theory and in practice. Towards the end of today's chat, Dr. Jenzer also gives some attention to the important ideas of cardiac risk, congestive heart failure, and cardiomyopathy, so make sure to stay tuned right to the end to catch all of that too!
