There are a series of videos in the pharmacology playlist related to the pharmacology of cardiology. You can pick videos from the list above or watch them all. These hand drawn videos are a great way to learn the material as you actively follow along by drawing out the animations yourself as you watch the video.
Drugs in Congestive Heart Failure - CRASH! USMLE Step 2 and 3, Paul Bolin (29:59)
Medical management of CHF is broken down into emergency management, inpatient management, and outpatient management. Each category of drugs includes examples, mechanism of action, side effects, and contraindications.
Cardiovascular Pharmacology Part 1, USMLE (8:11)
Cardiovascular Pharmacology Part 2, USMLE (8:11)
This video follows First Aid and talks through pages that are shown in the video. It further explains some of the concepts in a way that you can follow along in your copy of First Aid and take notes. This can be used as a good preview and a good review for when you’re learning pharmacology of the cardiovascular system.
Statins, Fibrates, Niacin, etc. - Easy Pharm for USMLE Step 1, Pharm 450 (8:36)
Using animations, this video uses analogies to the drawing to several common cardiology drugs, which serves as a helpful visual way to remember the details. Mechanism of action, lipid profile affected, and side effects are all described for statins, fibrates, niacin, bile resins, and ezetimibe.
Sodium Channel Blockers - Easy Pharm for USMLE Step 1, Pharm 450 (3:22)
Using a Salty Diner setting, this animation describes the sodium channel blockers: 1A, 1B, and 1C. Using mnemonics and memory aids with pictures and characters illustrated, this video covers the mechanisms of action, what part of the cardiac action potential is affected, and when to use each drug, as well as side effects.
Diuretics and Antihypertensives - CRASH! Medical Review Series, Paul Bolin (20:33)
Drugs covered are diuretics (thiazide diuretics, loop diuretics, potassium sparing diuretics, and carbonic anhydrase inhibitors), angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, beta blockers, alpha blockers, and calcium channel blockers. Examples of each category, mechanism of action, side effects, and more are discussed. The video also touches on hypertension in pregnancy.
Cardiovascular Drugs; Anti Hypertensive drugs, Professor Fink (36:16)
Professor Fink starts the video with Essential Hypertension and its pathophysiology. He then focuses in on the drugs, which include Thiazide Diuretics, Adrenergic Blockers, Calcium-Channel Blockers, Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE)-Inhibitors, Angiotensin II Blockers, Direct-Acting Vasodilators, and Centrally-Acting Anti-Adrenergic Agents.
