Student experience

the class

Early recognition and aggressive management of shock states is one of the most challenging and rewarding patient care experiences. If done well the patient impact is incredible and lives can be saved. Integrate detailed physiologic understanding of shock states and shock evaluation - including echocardiography - with the pharmacology of shock management to develop a practical approach to patient care. Echocardiography training will emphasize obtaining views, recognizing anatomy and appreciating biventricular function as a method to differentiate shock states and select an appropriate treatment plan. The in-depth science of the course will be supplemented by clinical experiences focusing on shock evaluation and management in the cardiothoracic critical care unit, medical intensive care unit and, when possible, with cardiac anesthesiology enabling the student to develop a practical bedside approach to the evaluation and management of shock.
