CARDIOMYOPATHIES MODULE
The 'Cardiomyopathies module' (part of the Applied or Clinical CVS manual) is designed to cover the most relevant aspects of the disease in an easy to understand and memorise format.
The study material primarily focuses on the most pertinent content for candidates preparing for post-graduate anaesthesia examinations, particularly the EDAIC/ FRCA/ FCAI exams.
Anaesthetic considerations in a hypertensive patient posted for non-cardiac surgery.
This chapter covers the pre-op evaluation, optimisation strategies, anaesthesia-related concerns and perioperative management of patients with hypertension posted for non-cardiac surgery. Questions on 'Hypertension' are asked with HTN forming the as 'sole-morbidity' or as a part of 'multiple comorbidities' scenarios.
Candidates should know the definition and staging/grading of HTN, pathophysiology, anaesthetic implications of the disease, and the current guidelines on peri-op case management.
In this chapter, we have comprehensively covered the major concerns associated with the presence of hypertension in a patient posted for non-cardiac surgery with due regards to syllabus recommendations of the European/UK board syllabus for EDAIC/FRCA.
Anaesthetic considerations in a patient with ischemic heart disease posted for non-cardiac surgery.
Pre-op evaluation, the cardiac risk scores, optimisation strategies and perioperative management of patients with ischemic heart disease posted for non-cardiac surgery make up a significant bulk of questions asked in various post-graduate anaesthesia examinations. Candidates sitting in these exams must have a thorough understanding of the topic.
Perioperative ischaemia and management are some of the examiner-favourites' whether as MCQ or in table viva.
In this chapter, we have comprehensively covered the major concerns associated with the presence of ischemic heart disease in a patient posted for non-cardiac surgery with due regards to syllabus recommendations of the European/UK board syllabus for EDAIC/FRCA.
ANAESTHETIC IMPLICATIONS OF THE CARDIAC IMPLANTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICES (CIEDs)
The chapter covers the basic understanding of device mechanics, common concerns surrounding the presence of CIED in the patient in the peri-op setting, the anaesthetic management of a case with PPM/AICD posted for non-cardiac surgery and some unique areas of concern in the patients with CIEDs.
In the end, we have included a section of the "Most commonly asked questions" in viva-sessions of EDAIC, FRCA and FCAI examinations.

-
- The basic CPB circuitry.
- Myocardial injury and preservation during CPB.
- Conduct and complications of CPB.
- The perioperative considerations surrounding the management of a patient undergoing CPB.
INFECTIVE ENDOCARDITIS MODULE
The infective endocarditis module covers the salient features of the disease, with emphasis on recent updates on the antibiotic prophylaxis recommendations.
The study material is primarily focussed on the content that is most relevant for candidates sitting for post graduate anaesthesia examinations, particularly the EDAIC/FRCA/FCAI exams.
Heart failure module
The ‘Heart failure module’ (part of the Applied or Clinical CVS manual) is designed to help the candidates understand this complex topic focusing on:
- pathophysiology, clinical presentation and management of heart failure,
- formulation of a systematic approach towards the pre-op evaluation and optimisation of patients; and
- the perioperative considerations surrounding the management of a patient with a history of heart failure posted for non-cardiac surgery.
Anaesthetic considerations in a patient post-cardiac transplant
With an increasing number of cardiac transplants being conducted every year, anaesthesiologists are faced with the management of post-transplant patients for both cardiac and non-cardiac surgeries/procedures.
This topic is one of the most frequently asked Viva and MCQ question in post-graduate anaesthesia examinations, and candidates should know the pathophysiology and clinical implications of the transplant.
In this chapter, we have comprehensively covered the major concerns faced by anesthesiologists in post-transplant patients while covering the scope of examination at the same time.
