This highly successful course aims to help participants achieve competence in performing and interpreting transthoracic echocardiography in the critical care setting. With about 6 weeks of preparation using the outstanding University of Melbourne Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE) Simulator Course, that culminates in a two-day intensive workshop on 15-16 July 2019 led by Intensivists and Anaesthetists, we hope that essential skills will be retained for longer than traditional short courses allow.
