A complete, full-color clinical manual and review of TEE 4 STAR DOODY'S REVIEW! "This is an excellent addition to the library of books on TEE. It is concise yet thorough, well written with excellent illustrations, graphs, and tables that enhance the reading, and provides an outstanding review of the subject. I would highly recommend this to all cardiothoracic anesthesiologists, especially fellows in training."--Doody's Review Service "All in all, the second edition of the Clinical Manual and Review of Transesophageal Echocardiography is a very solid entry into what I would consider the “board preparation” category of echocardiography textbooks. The chapters are concise and well illustrated, and most have an extensive number of questions that allow readers to identify topics that they may need to review in greater depth. With expert contributing authors and sound editing, the second edition of this book would be a valuable addition to the library of anesthesiologists interested in a text covering the breadth of topics related to perioperative echocardiography."--Anesthesia & Analgesia "This represents a herculean editorial challenge as to the educational framework required by the various audiences who use this book to guide clinical care as well as study for Board examinations: resident, fellow, and attending physician. The challenge is to make this text useful to the novice and serve as a resource for the experienced clinician....[The book] represents a narrative and graphic standard that will enhance the knowledge of the reader and facilitate application of exemplary clinical care to high-risk patients in the perioperative period."--Paul Barash, MD, Professor of Anesthesiology, Yale University School of Medicine, from the foreword Clinical Manual and Review of Transesophageal Echocardiography offers concise yet comprehensive coverage of the key principles, concepts, and developing practice of TEE. Each chapter provides a summary of the physiology, pathophysiology, tomographic views, and the required two-dimensional, M-Mode, and Doppler echocardiography data for a number of common disease states. Important clinical information is integrated with the principles of cardiovascular physiology. Features: Addresses all the important clinical and technical issues and major exam topics Enhanced anatomic representation of ultrasound imaging planes Increased number of chapter-ending review questions NEW companion CD-ROM includes practice questions for the TEE certification exams An effective blend of narrative and bulleted text, charts, and graphs speeds access to key clinical information Important new chapters on 3D TEE, epicardial and epiaortic ultrasonography, TEE in the emergency room, training and certification in perioperative TEE, and the TEE board exam Valuable appendices detailing normal chamber dimensions and volumes, diastolic function, quantification of stenotic and regurgitant valves, hemodynamic calculations, and more Contributions from leading anesthesiologists, cardiologists, and cardiothoracic surgeons Perfect for review
The perfect visual companion to the Transesophageal Echocardiography Multimedia Manual, Second Edition manual. The DVD component compiles more than 1,000 video clips that provide the viewer with real-life footage of the TEE procedure, advice on proper techniques, and insight into accurate interpretations of the post-op results. The DVD also contains a PDF of the manual's text to fully guide anesthesiologists, cardiologists, and cardiac surgeons through the techniques and processes of TEE. Key features include: echocardiographic examinations hemodynamic pressure tracings intraoperative surgical views animated representations of the 3D echocardiographic plane

Publisher's Note: Products purchased from 3rd Party sellers are not guaranteed by the Publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product. Ideal for residents, fellows, and others who need a comprehensive, clinically focused understanding of echocardiography, The Echo Manual, 4th Edition, has been thoroughly revised with updated information, new chapters, and new video clips online. Written primarily by expert authorities from the Mayo Clinic, this best-selling reference remains a practical guide to the performance, interpretation, and clinical applications of today’s echocardiography.
A Practical Approach to Transesophageal Echocardiography, Third Edition, offers a concise and intensely illustrated guide to the current practice of perioperative TEE. Anesthesiology and cardiology attendings, fellows, and residents will find this an indispensible resource to the physics, examination protocols, and practice pitfalls of TEE. Designed in a portable format, A Practical Approach to Transesophageal Echocardiography, Third Edition, serves as a comprehensive and current reference easily carried into the operating room and clinical environments.
The definitive text and reference on transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is now in its thoroughly updated Second Edition. This edition has been significantly reorganized to meet new demands in the field. The first section covers material relevant to the basic certification now being implemented by the American Society of Anesthesiologists and the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists. The second section, new to this edition, covers echocardiography in the critical care setting. The third section covers advanced applications relevant to the current certification. Coverage includes new chapters on organizing education and training in perioperative echocardiography; ultrasound for vascular access; assessment of the patient with endocarditis; using echo during resuscitation; epiaortic and epicardial imaging; endovascular management of thoracic vascular disease; transcutaneous management of valvular heart disease; and perioperative application of Strain and three-dimensional echocardiography. A companion website includes the fully searchable text and an image bank.
The Practice of Perioperative Transesophageal Echocardiography provides over 100 teaching cases ranging from the most common to the most challenging. Each case is succinctly presented in an easy-to-read question-answer, self-test format comprised of three printed pages of text and echo images. Echocardiography technique, interpretation, and case management are emphasized by internationally recognized experts in the field. The cases cover the gamut of clinical problems, as well as challenges related to image optimization and artifacts. The versatility of TEE is represented by 2-D, 3-D, color flow and spectral Doppler, tissue Doppler imaging, and quantitative assessments of volumes, pressures, and the severity of valvular pathologies. A companion website contains the fully searchable text plus echocardiographic video clips for each case.
Basic Transesophageal and Critical Care Ultrasound provides an overview of transesophageal ultrasound of the heart, lung, and upper abdomen as well as basic ultrasound of the brain, lung, heart, abdomen, and vascular system. Ultrasound-guided procedures commonly used in critically ill patients are also covered. With more than 400 clinical images, this well-illustrated text and its accompanying videos demonstrate new developments and challenges for those interested in mastering basic transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and bedside surface ultrasound. Each chapter is presented in an easy-to-read format that includes color diagrams and ultrasound images which optimize interactive learning for both novice and experienced clinicians. The book is divided into two parts. The first is dedicated to basic TEE while the second provides focused coverage of bedside ultrasound. The book also includes chapters on extra-cardiac TEE and ultrasound of the brain—unconventional areas that will become more important in the future as clinicians evaluate not only the etiology of hemodynamic instability but also the impact on multiple organs and systems such as the kidney, liver, splanchnic perfusion, and brain. This text is an invaluable resource to those preparing for the National Board of Echocardiography’s Examination of Special Competence in Basic Perioperative Transesophageal Echocardiography (PTEeXAM) and its equivalents outside the USA and Canada. In addition, it prepares physicians for the American College of Chest Physician’s critical care ultrasound certification. The contents follow the syllabus of the TEE basic echo exam to ensure complete coverage of a trainee's requirements. It also includes sample questions and two helpful mock exams. Written by a multidisciplinary team of experts in TEE, the book is a must-have for those in training and in practice.
