TEE/TTE Workshops

The TEE/TTE Workshop is designed to introduce the participants to PoCUS studies that can be used as part of patient assessment in everyday clinical practice. Participants must complete the TEE/TTE online modules prior to attending the workshop. During the workshop, participants will learn to perform the studies on live models and high-fidelity simulators. Participants will complete a competency-based evaluation with course instructors to demonstrate proficiency.
