In TEE Time Episode 12, the focus is on teaching healthcare providers how to use Transesophageal Echocardiography (TEE) to provide optimal care for patients undergoing mitral valve replacement surgery. This episode incorporates key points from previous episodes on native valve evaluation, mitral regurgitation, and mitral stenosis, and organizes them into a high-yield review of concepts. The discussion covers pre-bypass evaluations, intraprocedural guidance, and post-bypass assessments using methodologies like the six-step native valve evaluation system and the SLICK valve evaluation system. The episode includes specifics on 2D and 3D echocardiography, Doppler echocardiography, surgical approaches, cannulation, and cardioplegia strategies. 00:00 Introduction to TEE Time Episode 12 01:31 Pre Bypass Period: Six-Step Native Valve Evaluation 11:14 Intraprocedural Considerations for Mitral Valve Replacement 14:08 Post Bypass Period: SLICK Valve Evaluation System 20:26 Summary and Key Points 21:04 Conclusion and Next Episode Preview #TEE #Echocardiography #Anesthesia #Cardiology #CriticalCare #EmergencyMedicine #Sonographer #CardiacSurgery #FOAMed #POCUS #Ultrasound #Anesthesiology #Perioperative #CardiacAnesthesia #AnesthesiaPodcast #Anesthesiology #Echo #Surgery #AdvancedTEE #PerioperativeTEE #TTE #Sonography #PulmCrit #TEETime #TransesophagealEchocardiography DISCLAIMER: This podcast provides recommendations intended for educational purposes only and should not be used as the sole basis for making medical decisions.
