Cardiovascular System: Anatomy & Physiology

This course explores the structure and function of the cardiovascular system, providing a comprehensive foundation in both anatomy and physiology. Learners will study the heart’s chambers, valves, and conduction system, as well as the major blood vessels that maintain systemic and pulmonary circulation. The course also examines key physiological principles such as cardiac output, blood flow regulation, and blood pressure control. Through detailed visuals, clinical examples, and guided review materials, students will develop a clear understanding of how the cardiovascular system sustains life and responds to physiological demands—essential knowledge for nursing, medical, and allied health education.
