Cat 1 Echocardiography Series III
 
 

Category 1 statement of approval is found on the objectives page in each course.

Upon completion of this series, the participant will be able to identify tricuspid valve disease, pulmonic valve disease, dilated cardiomyopathies, hypertrophic cardiomyopathies, and diseases of the aorta by understanding the etiology, pathology, signs and symptoms, echocardiographic findings, and the use of other diagnostic techniques including medical history, signs and symptoms, EKG, palpation, auscultation, and catheterization.  The participant will also be able to identify treatments appropriate to the specific disease.

The presentation utilizes standard, animation, case study video, audio and video interactive activities, and simulation methods to reinforce learning. Evaluation utilizes knowledge-recall, application-interpretation, and simulation constructs to meet course objectives.
