Course Information
Description
This rotation provides an overview of consultative cardiology in an inpatient setting, with an ancillary focus on the invasive and non-invasive modalities most used by cardiologists in their daily practice. Students will be responsible for performing consults on patients throughout the hospital under the supervision of a cardiology fellow. Students will have the option to spent time rotating through different laboratories, such as those for echocardiography, cardiac catheterization, and nuclear stress testing.
One of the strengths of training at Massachusetts General Hospital is the remarkable variety and complexity of patients seen during this rotation. Senior staff supervise through daily rounds, but the student and fellow are the main provider and decision makers for patient care.
