ABOUT THE COURSE
The undergraduate programme in Cardiac Technology educates the students by analyzing and taking care of patients with heart problems.The candidates are well trained to handle and maintain the medical equipment and machines such as ultrasound, electrocardiogram and so on. In the management of existing cardiac vascular disorders needs composite diagnostic and therapeutic procedures entail with the use of various equipments such as computer hardware tools and pharmacological agents. The task of this course is to train the candidates to handle those equipments and regular maintenance with intellectual knowledge of scientific principles on cardiac disorders. The job opportunities of this course are cardiovascular technologists, in this health professional who diagnoses cardiovascular problems. Using medical imaging methods, such as ultrasound among others, a cardiovascular technologist diagnoses heart conditions, vascular problems or any ailment that involves the heart, arteries, valves, and peripheral blood vessels.
