内容简介
Transoesophageal Echocardiography （TOE/TEE）in cardiac patients is now almost routine。Its use in cardiac monitoring has also extended to include critically ill patients for non-cardiac surgery and the intensive care setting。Specific accreditation is required prior to practice of TOE/TEE involving a written examination and a documented logbook of experience。This book has been specifically designed to help candidates pass the written exam and has been structured around the syllabus。Providing a summary of all relevant information，this is an invaluable study aid。Lists of further reading material are provided with every topic，including guidelines and safety，cardiomyopathies，heart disease，haemodynamic calculations and many more。Each chapter ends with a series of exam-style questions for self-assessment。An extremely useful book for trainee anaesthetists，intensivists，trainee cardiologists and cardiac surgeons。
