CTO Fundamentals.org: interaktywny kurs angioplastyki przewlekłych okluzji

Opublikowane: 3 listopada 2012 | Autor: | Filed under: Układ krążenia | Tags: , , , , , , , , |Dodaj komentarz

Zabieg angioplastyki tętnic wieńcowych staje się pojęciem, w ramach którego tworzą się obszary podspecjalizacji. Jedna z nich poświęcona jest leczeniu przewlekłych okluzji (CTO, ang. chronic total occlusion).

Zabiegi angioplastyki, w tym wskazaniu, są uznawane za jedne najtrudniejszych, najbardziej wymagających i najdłuższych. Nic więc dziwnego, że liczba operatorów, którzy specjalizują się w CTO jest ograniczona. Tym trudniej jest młodym kardiologom inwazyjnym zdobywać rzetelną wiedzą w tym zakresie.

W tym kontekście wyjątkowo pomocny jest interaktywny kurs e-learningu CTO opracowany przez zespół ekspertów pod kierownictwem prof. Khaldoon Alaswada, MD, FSCAI, FACC, FSVM, RVT z Appleton Heart Institute.

Inicjatywa CTO Fundamentals oferuje na swojej stronie bezpłatny kurs szkoleniowy zaopatrzony w serię filmów i testów i wiedzy. Bardzo ciekawa jest również biblioteka przypadków klinicznych (wymagana jest jedynie rejestracja on-line): http://ctofundamentals.org
