Learn from a range of experienced faculty from critical care, cardiology and cardiac anaesthesia.

The first two days is be based upon intermediate / advanced TTE focussing on extended trans-thoracic views, measurements involved with a full data set and intermediate/advanced valvular assessment. This will be performed on volunteers with a focus on hands on scanning, with a development of skills to skill the delegates up to a complete comprehensive scan with expert led case discussions.

The third day is focused on advanced TOE performed on HeartWorks Mannequin Simulators.

This would focus on hands on practice obtaining a standard set of TOE views and measurements involved with a full TOE data set. Specific sessions would cover simulated pathology covering tamponade, valvulopathy and aortic syndromes. Additional expert presentations cover complications from MI, infective endocarditis and critical care case discussions.
