DOI: 10.36660/abcimg.20240039i
Abstract
With technological advancement, physical examination is no longer sufficient for a more accurate assessment of critically ill patients, especially in premature newborns where clinical signs may not be interpreted objectively. Therefore, there is great interest in training neonatologists in its practice, with major global centers already incorporating it permanently into their residency and continuing medical education programs. This review article discusses our experience in teaching institutionally focused echocardiography.
