Please Note: All scheduled courses (unless clearly indicated) are delivered online using an Interactive Blended Online Learning Model.

In this course, students will analyse the pathophysiology of heart failure and outline the diagnostic pathway, including the importance of early diagnosis and the role of the multi-disciplinary team. The course supports students in critically analysing current guidelines and other drivers for heart failure and apply their findings to their clinical environments. Students will critically analyse pharmacological and non-pharmacological management of heart failure. The course is grounded in a person-centred approach to supporting patients with heart failure and their families and carers.
