Abstract

Cardiology is a field which is developing rapidly and is increasingly separated from internal medicine. It is built on a comprehensive theoretical basis, but also offers intervention methods of diagnosis and treatment.

Doctors and nurses working in this field are placed great demands in terms of theoretical knowledge, practical skills, but also on human qualities. On one side are the visible progress of medical science with new technologies, and on the other hand, these aspects must be supported by teams of well-trained non-medical staff.

Training of those who care for patients never ends. Increasing information and technological demands of industry, the need to communicate in interdisciplinary teams and solving complex ethical issues including coping with prolonged stress are strong minutiae.

The main stimulus to write a short text note was not only an extraordinary intensity field for doctors and nurses, but also emphasizing the lifelong education of nurses in cardiology
