Dental Management of the Cardiovascular Compromised Patient

Osnovna znanja o kardiovaskularnim bolestima, simptomima i komplikacijama koje mogu nastati tijekom stomatološkog zahvata, kao i postupak rada tijekom zahvata kod pacijenata s kardiovaskularnom bolesti, nužna su svakom stomatologu. U slučaju da stomatološki pacijenti koji boluju od kardiovaskularnih bolesti nisu pravilno liječeni i nemaju adekvatnu kontrolu osnovne bolesti, postoji veća opasnost od pogoršanja osnovne bolesti tijekom stomatološkog zahvata. Cilj rada je sažeto prikazati posebnosti stomatološkog zbrinjavanja bolesnika s učestalim kardiovaskularnim poremećajima. Basic knowledge of cardiovascular diseases, symptoms and complications that can occur during a dental procedure, as well as the familiarity with the procedure when treating cardiovascular patients, are necessary for every dentist. If dental patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases are not properly treated and an adequate control of underlying disease has not been ensured, there is an increased risk of the aggravation of underlying disease during a dental procedure. The aim of this thesis is to briefly present the specific characteristics of dental care for patients with frequent cardiovascular disorders.
