Recent calls for Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) education to cultivate the affective domain or "habits of the heart" have highlighted a gap in curricula, where cognitive and psychomotor learning domains are often the focus. Balint groups, traditionally used in medical education, offer a potential method for addressing this gap. These small peer discussion groups provide a space for students to reflect on the emotional and interpersonal complexities of providing patient care through practicing perspective-taking.

Since 2006, the Heart Rhythm Society, in collaboration with the CIED industry, has led an initiative to establish a unified standard nomenclature.

Septic patients are routinely exposed to endogenously released and exogenously administered catecholamines, which may alter cardiac function and perfusion causing ischemia. Early during human septic shock, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) decreases but normalizes in survivors over 7-10 days.
