The Future Role of Cardio-oncologists
CV disease and cancer
most common causes of mortality in developed countries
first clinical manifestation of adverse effects from anticancer drugs
depression of the left ventricle function leading to heart failure
Diagnosis of myocardial dysfunction
was based on a decrease of LVEF
2D and 3D echocardiography
cardiac MRI
multigated radionuclide angiography
cardiomarkers and natriuretic peptides
They are divided into nine categories according to their pathophysiology and clinical manifestation
myocardial dysfunction and heart failure
coronary artery disease
valvular disease
arrhythmias
arterial hypertension
thromboembolic disease
peripheral vascular disease and stroke
pulmonary hypertension
pericardial complications
four factors for CV risk
current myocardial disease
previous cardiotoxic cancer treatment
demographic risk factors
life-style risk factors
development of the new cardiology subspecialty in cardiooncology
multidisciplinary field with the aim to prevent and treat CV complications from cancer therapy
The cardio-oncology clinic must be able to cover all needs required to fulfil its aims
co-ordinator should be patient care co-ordination, triaging urgent CV issues and patient education
Education and research are also important functions of the successful centre
education for the general public
