Consequently, increased toxicity of these drugs ...Unreferenced date December 2009 Cardiac glycosides are medication drugs used in the treatment of congestive heart failure and cardiac arrhythmia . These glycoside s are found as secondary metabolite s in several plant s, but also in some animals. File Oleandrin.svg thumb Example of the chemical structure of oleandrin , one of the cardiac glycosides. Function Cardiac glycosides are used therapeutically mainly in the treatment of cardiac failure. These effects are caused by the ability to increase cardiac output by increasing the Inotrope force of contraction by increasing intracellular calcium as described below, increasing calcium induced calcium release and thus contraction. Drugs such as ouabain and digoxin are cardiac glycosides. digoxin from the foxglove plant is used clinically, whereas ouabain is used only experimentally due to its extremely high potency. Normally, Na K ATPase sodium potassium pumps in the membrane of cells in this case, cardiac myocytes pump potassium ions in and sodium ions out. Cardiac glycosides inhibit this pump by stabilizing it in the E2 P transition state, so that sodium cannot be extruded intracellular sodium concentration therefore increases.

Cardiac nursing is a nursing specialty that works with patients who suffer from various conditions of the cardiovascular system. Cardiac nurses help treat conditions such as unstable Angina pectoris angina , cardiomyopathy , coronary artery disease , congestive heart failure , myocardial infarction and cardiac dysrhythmia under the direction of a cardiologist. Cardiac nurses perform postoperative care on a surgical unit, stress test evaluations, cardiac monitoring, vascular monitoring, and health assessments. Cardiac nurses must have Basic Life Support and Advanced Cardiac Life Support certification. In addition, cardiac nurses must possess specialized skills including electrocardiogram monitoring, defibrillation , and medication administration by continuous Intravenous therapy intravenous drip. Cardiac nurses work in many different environments, including coronary care unit s CCU , cardiac catheterization , intensive care unit s ICU , operating theatre s, cardiac rehabilitation centers, clinical research , cardiac surgery wards, cardiovascular intensive care unit s CVICU , and cardiac medical wards. Certification for cardiac nurses All cardiac nurses are registered nurses , yet some may choose to receive certification .

Cardiac yoga is recommended to the medically stable patients. Cardiac yoga focuses mainly on breathing practices, stress reduction , stretching, relaxation, and body awareness techniques. While exercising, patients use mats, pillows, chairs and other accessories to ensure general comfort and correct positioning. The aim is to improve lung capacity, reduce stress, strengthen tired muscles and inspire healing. It also assists with emotional adjustment. Cardiac yoga is aimed at helping cardiovascular patients to develop an exercising routine that can be done at home to further promote a healthy lifestyle. Patients learn deep relaxation, stretching and breathing techniques, work with their imagination, and observe a healthy diet.

The phrase cardiac monitoring generally refers to continuous electrocardiography with assessment of the patients condition relative to their cardiac rhythm. It is different from hemodynamic monitoring, which monitors the pressure and flow of blood within the circulatory system. The two may be performed simultaneously on critical heart patients. Cardiac monitoring is different from neurological monitoring of intracranial pressure and electroencephalography A small monitor worn by an ambulatory patient is known as a Holter monitor . Transmitting data from a monitor to a distant monitoring station is known as Telemetry or Biotelemetry Emergency Medical Services Ambulance services and other emergency medical services providers utilize heart monitors to assess the patient s cardiac rhythm. Providers licensed or certified at the Intermediate or Paramedic level are qualified to interpret EKGs. The finding of a cardiac dysrhythmia or for that matter, a normal sinus rhythm may give additional information about the patients condition or may be a sufficient diagnosis on its own to guide treatment. Treatment for specific cardiac rhythms is guided by Advanced Cardiac Life Support ACLS .
