Certificate Level Program in Non-Invasive Cardiology

Build a strong foundation in Non-Invasive Cardiology

Course Outcomes:

  • Understand the Foundations of Non-Invasive Cardiology
  • Master the Cardiac Cycle and Electrophysiology
  • Gain proficiency in interpreting non-invasive diagnostic techniques like ECG and Echocardiography
  • Learn a systematic approach to chest pain management
  • Understand the evaluation and management of syncope and cardiac arrest

About the course:

The demand for skilled professionals in Non-Invasive cardiology is rapidly increasing, particularly in India, due to the rising prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and lifestyle-related conditions. Cardiovascular diseases account for 32% of all global deaths, and in India, the burden is even higher. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that nearly 28% of all deaths in India are caused by CVDs, with a significant increase in cases of heart disease and stroke among younger populations.

As the healthcare landscape evolves, there is a pressing need for practitioners who can effectively employ non-invasive diagnostic techniques, such as echocardiography, stress testing, and Holter monitoring. However, a recent study estimates that India has fewer than 4,000 trained cardiologists, while over 54 million people in the country are affected by cardiovascular diseases. This disparity highlights the urgent need to upskill general practitioners and post-MBBS doctors in non-invasive cardiology, a critical step to bridging the gap between patient needs and available expertise.
