Cardiovascular diseases are – according to the (World Health Organization (WHO) – the number one cause of death globally. Myocardial infarction (heart attack) is the most prominent under the Cardiovascular diseases. In Switzerland alone, the risk to develop a coronary heart disease during life time is around 25% for men and 18% for women. Most cardiovascular diseases can be prevented by addressing behavioral risk factors, the understanding of these risk factors, their mechanisms and impact on the cardiovascular system. In this context our course aims to approach the complex field of myocardial infarction in two respects: medical education and awareness of a broader audience.

The course was really effective. It's just that the formatting of the quizzes needs sme adjustment.
MA
Very interesting and informative, but a more in-depth look on the pharmacology would have been the creme de la creme.

Excellent content delivered through experts in cardiology.
Had a great time learning diagnosis and treatment of Myocardial Infarction
Very interesting and informative, but a more in-depth look on the pharmacology would have been the creme de la creme.
This course is very helpful for Medical and biological sciences people. The layout of the course is very interactive and easy to understand. Thanks, Coursera
This is an excellent review course on the subject for medical students, nurses and medical graduates alike. The quizzes demand not only viewing the lecture videos but reading the recommended references as well. Unfortunately, the relative complexity of the material may not be suitable for casual learners or lay people interested to know more about the disease.
it was a great course with adds very precious knowledge to each general physician and young cardiologist
however the level is easy. you can make it harder and add some more information. more AHA or ESC guidelines with some assignments to make sure everyone checks on the latest updates and answers accordingly..
it is one of the most interesting courses I have ever studied, the doctor is really amazing and has easy language and cover most of topics In a simple way
Great course on upskilling in Structural Heart Disease, Diagnosis and treatment of the cascade of the pathophysiology of heart failure
fue un buen curso, siento que pudieron ampliar mas alguna información pero con la intención de hacerlos cortos ,creo que los temas estuvieron precisos y muy prácticos para un estudiante medico en formación
Thoroughly structured with critical information, great addition to Cardiomyopathy knowledge base and highly recommend for new and existing learners.
Excellent review of therapy for Myocardical infarction ! However, the quizzes often ask things that do not appear on the videos/readings
Thank you very much for the opportunity to take your course. It turned out to be very interesting and informative.
Very good in basic sciences and in therapeutic options to treat myocardial infarction and heart failure.
The topic is well covered to provide the relevant information to beginners with good clarity.
Recommend everyone to take this course to gain a better understanding of their own heart.
Very succinct and clear explanation to causes, treatment and aftermath of MI.
dry, emotionless lectures with millions of jargons. No idea what is the target audience
This course was so useful, because every professor taught appropiated and current information about cardiovascular diseases (Myocardial Infarction and Hearth failure) and related with old trials to make a difference about information that have happened over time and how the disease and management of these ones nowadays has changed.
Regardless of your specialty of interest in medicine Practice, it is always good to know about Myocardial Infarction. The information was updated and accurate. Zurich University has done a good job with this module and I recommend to other colleagues. Thank you for all the presenters.
As a medical student and Spanish native speaker who is trying to improve her medical vocabulary, I highly recommend this course. It was really good!!! Besides learning new words and drugs, I got a better understanding of Myocardial Infarction. Thank you, doctors!!!
Hiiiii

I look forward to more courses in medicine from the university of Zurich
