Cardiac Care Laboratory
The University has established an action learning laboratory on Cardiac Care techniques. It is equipped to monitor cardiopulmonary disorders, and consists of TMT machine, ECG machine and Cardiac care beds with patient privacy cabins in order to monitor the functioning of the patient’s heart and heart rate.
Aim of the action learning laboratory
To provide students with the fundamental, extensive knowledge required to monitor patients in a healthcare setting for any kind of cardiac issues, pre/ post- surgery care. Additionally, students will be able to identify cardiac dysrhythmias and interpret basic ECGs.
Objectives
To provide students with hands-on learning and practice-based pedagogy on the following:
- Preparation of patients for various heart- related operations/surgery
- Assisting Surgeons in embedding pacemakers
- Monitoring Patients During Surgeries
