Advanced Hemodynamics
HEM002
This course educates about advances in neonatal hemodynamics and echocardiography. It is a mandatory course for neonatologists who want a focused orientation on a detailed assessment of hemodynamics and echocardiographic measurements in specific conditions like shock, PDA, and pulmonary hypertension. It includes essential concepts about advanced hemodynamics parameters and echo techniques.
Course Access Period: The course access starts with your purchase, and you will have a 30-day period to complete the course.

About the Course
Build confidence assessing neonatal hemodynamics and managing complex cardiovascular conditions through advanced echocardiographic skills.
Objectives:
After completing this course, you will be able to:- Deepen understanding of pulmonary hypertension and its hemodynamic assessment.
- Advance echocardiographic skills to identify red flags in heart structure and performance.
- Understand PDA physiology and refine echocardiographic protocols for diagnosis and management.
- Enhance ability to assess and manage critical conditions such as shock and PPHN.
- Master diagnosis and management of critical congenital heart defects (CHDs) and their hemodynamic changes.
- Apply advanced hemodynamic principles to clinical decision-making through case-based learning.
