Here is the B.Sc. Cardiac Technology - 3rd Year Syllabus as prescribed by The Tamil Nadu Dr. M.G.R. Medical University (TNMGRMU):
B.Sc. Cardiac Technology - Third Year Syllabus (TNMGRMU)
The 3rd year focuses entirely on the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory across two papers, split into a 3-month basics phase and a 9-month advanced phase.
Paper I - Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory: Basics (3 months)
- Types of catheters; catheter cleaning, packing, and sterilization techniques
- Setting up the cardiac catheterization laboratory for a diagnostic study
- Table movement and image intensifier movement
- Image playback
- Intracardiac pressures and pressure recording systems
- Fluid-filled catheters vs. catheter-tipped manometers
- Artifacts, damping, and ventricularzation
- Pressure gradient recording - pullback, peak-to-peak
- Cardiac output determination:
- Thermodilution method
- Oxygen dilution method
- Principles of cardiac catheterization (Fick's equation, oximetry, etc.)
Paper II - Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory: Advanced (9 months)
This covers deeper invasive cardiology procedures and interventional techniques, including:
- Advanced hemodynamic assessment
- Coronary angiography techniques
- Ventriculography
- Valvular assessment via catheterization
- Interventional procedures (PTCA, stenting concepts)
- Electrophysiology basics
- Pacemaker implantation concepts
- Radiation physics and safety
- Techniques of monitoring radiation exposure
- Measures to reduce radiation exposure
- Cine-angiographic equipment and contrast agents
- Complications and their management

Quick Reference: All 3 Years at a Glance
| Year | Papers |
|---|---|
| 1st Year | Applied Anatomy, Physiology & Biochemistry; Pathology, Microbiology & Pharmacology; Medical Electronics, Biophysics, Computer Usage & Basic ECG |
| 2nd Year | Clinical Features & Treatment + Basic Life Support; Advanced ECG, Treadmill Stress Testing & 24-hr Ambulatory ECG/BP; Echocardiography |
| 3rd Year | Cardiac Catheterization Lab - Basics; Cardiac Catheterization Lab - Advanced |
Notes:
- The above is based on the 2014-2015 regulations (currently active for most enrolled batches as per the TNMGRMU official page). The 2021-2022 batch may have a slightly revised structure.
- The full detailed syllabus PDF is available directly from TNMGRMU: bsccardiactechnology.pdf
- If you are from the Dr. MGR Educational and Research Institute (Deemed University, Maduravoyal), the curriculum structure may differ slightly - their B.Sc. Cardiac Care Technology uses a semester system (Semesters 5 & 6 in 3rd year).
