Overview

Critical care and emergency medicine for acute cardiovascular problems concerns the urgent recognition and management of life-threatening heart and circulatory conditions. These include events such as hypertensive crises, acute coronary syndromes, heart failure, and other emergencies in which rapid assessment and treatment are needed to stabilize the patient and prevent organ damage or death. This area combines cardiology with the time-critical, intensive approach of emergency and critical care medicine. Research in the Journal of Heart and Cardiology and affiliated journals addresses several of these acute presentations. One study examines the epidemiology, clinical profile, and short-term outcomes of hypertensive crisis, a common cardiovascular emergency requiring prompt blood-pressure control. Related work assesses cardiac function and the use of monitoring technologies in cardiovascular patients, and describes the clinical and therapeutic aspects of conditions such as rheumatic heart disease that can present acutely. Together these peer-reviewed, open-access articles gather evidence relevant to acute cardiovascular care, providing context for the urgent evaluation and treatment of cardiovascular emergencies.
