list the key echocardiographic images needed in the evaluation of the hypoxic critically ill patient;.
explain the indications for TEE in the setting of a cardiac arrest; and
describe how ultrasound imaging can change the management in patients with sepsis.

Workshop Description: The role of echocardiography in critically ill patients is expanding, both in multidisciplinary
