Cardiac Anesthesia & Intraoperative TEE Guidance

Training Overview

Cardiac Anesthesia & Intraoperative TEE Guidance is a comprehensive educational program designed to strengthen the theoretical knowledge, clinical expertise, and intraoperative decision-making abilities of healthcare professionals involved in cardiac anesthesia. Hosted at the ADN CoE Training, Research Center & Core Lab, this two-day program integrates structured theoretical education with case-based learning, focusing on anesthesia management for cardiac surgery and the clinical application of intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE).

The course covers core topics including cardiac anatomy and physiology, principles of cardiac anesthesia, hemodynamic monitoring, anesthetic management during cardiac procedures, intraoperative TEE fundamentals, image interpretation, ventricular function assessment, valvular pathology evaluation, and perioperative patient management. Emphasis is placed on accurate interpretation of TEE findings, anesthesia planning, and correlation with surgical and hemodynamic outcomes.

Through expert-led lectures and structured case discussions, participants review real-world cardiac anesthesia cases supported by intraoperative TEE findings, enhancing their understanding of perioperative physiology and its impact on anesthetic and surgical decision-making. Training is delivered by experienced cardiac anesthesiologists and echocardiography specialists, reinforcing clinical precision, patient safety, and quality standards.

In addition to core sessions, the program includes discussions on anesthesia workflow optimization, intraoperative communication with surgical teams, patient safety protocols, and integration of TEE-guided findings into multidisciplinary cardiac care. Case-based sessions address challenges commonly encountered in cardiac anesthesia practice.

By the end of the program, participants will have enhanced their ability to plan and manage cardiac anesthesia effectively while utilizing intraoperative TEE to support clinical decision-making in surgical settings.
