GlobalRPh Clinical Reference Library

Cardiology Clinical Resource Center

Cardiovascular calculators, risk-assessment tools, lipid and prevention resources, anticoagulation support, heart-failure references, cardiovascular drug tables, and current GlobalRPh cardiology articles organized for faster clinical navigation.

Primary audience: physicians, pharmacists, nurses, advanced practice clinicians and other healthcare professionals involved in cardiovascular risk assessment, pharmacotherapy and clinical care.

Clinical background

One portal for prevention, acute care and chronic cardiovascular disease

Cardiovascular medicine spans much more than a single disease state. Preventive risk assessment, lipoprotein evaluation, hypertension, arrhythmia, anticoagulation, ischemic heart disease, heart failure, hemodynamics, vascular disease, renal function, metabolic health, and medication safety frequently overlap in the same patient.

We have organized our cardiology calculators, cardiovascular medication references, heart-failure resources, cardiometabolic tools and current cardiology articles within a single clinical hub. We retain established calculators and guideline-era resources where they remain useful, while clearly separating them from newer tools and identifying resources that we have prioritized for contemporary review.

  • ASCVD risk & prevention
  • Lipids, ApoB & Lp(a)
  • Hypertension
  • Arrhythmia & stroke risk
  • Anticoagulation & bleeding
  • Acute coronary syndromes
  • Heart failure
  • Cardiometabolic risk
Cardiology Imaging And Procedural Care Environment

Prevention, lipids & cardiovascular risk

Risk assessment and prevention calculators

We feature our newer integrated analyzer first while retaining established risk calculators and guideline-era tools for comparison, education and continuity with longstanding clinical workflows.

Established guideline-era calculators

We retain these older guideline-era pages for continuity and historical comparison. We have identified them as priority candidates for review as we continue modernizing the Cardiology section.

Arrhythmia, stroke prevention & anticoagulation

Risk scores, digoxin, warfarin, heparin and thromboembolism tools

Acute coronary care, resuscitation & hemodynamics

ACS risk, emergency cardiovascular medications and physiologic tools

Resuscitation resources

We retain our long-standing ACLS/PALS pages for continuity. We have prioritized these individual resources for re-verification against current resuscitation guidance during their next update.

Heart failure

Current heart-failure reading plus established GlobalRPh references

Our current cardiology archive includes clinically important material on HFpEF, SGLT2 inhibitors, amyloidosis and iron deficiency. We surface these contemporary reviews ahead of our older guideline-era heart-failure pages.

Established GlobalRPh heart-failure references undergoing review

Contemporary review priority

Several of our long-standing heart-failure references were developed under earlier staging and guideline frameworks. We are preserving these resources for continuity while completing dedicated contemporary reviews as the individual Cardiology pages are modernized.

Cardiovascular pharmacotherapy

GlobalRPh cardiovascular drug-reference library

We have retained our extensive cardiovascular medication library and reorganized it by therapeutic function to support more efficient clinical navigation.

Cardiometabolic & lifestyle support

Body composition, weight, energy and fiber tools

These calculators were historically mixed into the main Cardiology calculator list. They remain available, but are now grouped as supporting cardiometabolic resources so the core cardiovascular workflow stays focused.

Recent cardiology and cardiovascular-medicine articles

The older portal’s short article list has been replaced by a curated current library. The full Cardiology category remains linked below for deeper archive browsing.
