Article Abstract
Echocardiography is key in evaluating the cause of collapse in the post-cardiac surgery patient. Transesophageal echocardiography provides a greater capability for the diagnosis of pericardial effusion in patients who arrest after cardiac surgery.

Low Frequency, High Complexity: Assessing Skill Decay in Transesophageal Echocardiography Post-Simulation Training.

Introduction: Resuscitative transesophageal echo (rTEE) is a promising adjunct to cardiac arrest resuscitation. However, it is a high-acuity diagnostic tool that is rarely used in this setting and its safety establishment is limited because of low occurrence. High-acuity, low occurrence skills such as rTEE during cardiac arrest inevitably decay.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is associated with gas embolism, which is often fatal when observed through clinical signs. Here we report the only case, to our knowledge, of a survivor of paradoxal gas embolism with a patent foramen ovale during ERCP. The patient suffered respiratory collapse with unmeasurable end-tidal carbon dioxide and severe hypoxemia.

• Obstruction of the LVOT can impede CPR. • TEE can be used to monitor the LVOT during CPR. • TEE can guide hand positioning during CPR to relieve pressure on the LVOT.

Purpose: Assessment of LV diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) poses challenges due to the dynamic changes of loading conditions in the perioperative course. Diastolic strain-based measures showed to be less load dependent, but data in aortic valve replacement (AVR) surgery remains sparse to date. Therefore, we aimed to explore the feasibility to assess these measurements and to describe the intraoperative course in this patient population.

• PACs remain important for some critically ill patients. • PAC placement is challenging in some without fluoroscopy or TEE. • POCUS is ubiquitous in the ICU setting.
