This is a face to face clinical rotation receiving 3 or 6 credit hours. The student should function with increased autonomy in patient care and must demonstrate competency in several of the Entrustable Professional Activities required for graduation. The student will learn basic principles of pediatric cardiology, which will increase understanding of the diagnosis, management and treatment of the patient with heart disease. The student also will learn the basics of graphics interpretation (EKG; m-mode, 2d and Doppler echocardiography; exercise testing) hemodynamic data and x-ray, will be able to observe cardiac catheterizations and cardiac surgery, and will be intimately involved in the care of both inpatient and outpatient medical and surgical patients. This elective includes several weekly clinical/didactic sessions. Emphasis will be placed on the outpatient evaluation of children referred for heart murmurs, if so desired by the student.
