Program of December 2th-6th 2024 Course

Critical care TEE is a key component of advanced critical care echocardiography. It offers unparalleled image quality that is required for management of cardiopulmonary failure in the ICU when transthoracic echocardiography is not sufficient to answer the clinical question. Of interest to North American intensivists, the National Board of Echocardiography (NBE) is now offering certification in critical care TEE.
