Welcome to the Cardiac Anesthesiology/Cardiac Surgical Intensive Care Elective!
We look forward to providing you the opportunity for a diverse and challenging learning experience.
For the next four weeks, we want you to integrate into each of your respective teams. For the first 2 weeks, you
will be in either the Cardiothoracic-Surgery-ICU (SICU-B/CSICU) or the Cardiothoracic Operating Rooms (OR’s
72,73,74). For the second 2 weeks of the rotation, you will switch locations. Please be vigilant about completing
your checklists and reviewing the learning resources provided. In addition, one time every 2 weeks you will
participate in a patient simulation session related to the management of patients in the operating room or ICU.
I will be your contact in the Cardiothoracic operating rooms and Dr. Martinez-Ruiz ([email protected])
will be your contact in the SICU-B. Please contact me by email ([email protected]) the week prior to starting
the rotation to arrange assignments. Victor Chacon (Medical Student Education in Anesthesiology, Trauma 2 nd
Floor; 585-1191; [email protected]) can also be contacted for further information.
You will find it helpful to review the flowing prior to the start of the rotation:
1.Cardiac Physiology 2.Respiratory Physiology 3.Airway Anatomy 4.Airway Management on the following
website: http://www.healthsystem.virginia.edu/Internet/Anesthesiology-Elective/home.cfm
Please check the website for the course outline, additional educational resources, lecture schedule and the contacts
list for the rotation. I will meet with you throughout the rotation to ensure that the educational objectives are being
met. Please let me know if you should have any questions or concerns.
Again, we look forward to working with you and plan to provide you with an exceptional learning experience.
Enjoy!!

COURSE DESCRIPTION
1. Overview: During this rotation the student will be exposed to the principles and the practice of cardiothoracic
anesthesia, applied cardiovascular physiology and pharmacology, and the management of the cardiothoracic surgical patient in the post-surgical ICU setting.
The course will provide the student exposure to and experience performing the preoperative assessment, intraoperative management and postoperative intensive care management of cardiothoracic surgical patients from the perspective of the cardiac anesthesiologist and critical care specialist. The student will work with faculty, fellows, and residents delivering anesthetic care to adult patients undergoing cardiovascular and thoracic procedures in the operating room and be responsible for direct day-to-day patient care in the ICU.
2. Course Design: The student will initially spend 2 weeks in the OR participating in the preoperative and intraoperative care
of at least one CT surgery patient per day and the following 2 weeks in the Cardiac-Surgery-ICU assisting in the postoperative management of CT surgery patients.
Didactics :o Several Core Topics (listed below) will be covered during this rotation. These topics will be
discussed during the existing departmental lecture series, journal club sessions, departmental Grand Rounds and M&M conferences, all of which the student will be required to attend. Core Topics not covered within these sessions will be discussed with the students in small group settings by either the cardiac anesthesia fellows or attendings.
o Core Topics/Learning Seminars : 1. Pre-Op Evaluation of CT patient (OR)2. General Cardio-pulmonary Physiology (OR/ICU)3. Hemodynamics (OR/ICU)4. Cardio-pulmonary Bypass (OR)5. Invasive Monitoring/TEE (OR/ICU)6. Ventilation (OR/ICU) 7. General Support of patient in the ICU (Fluids/Hemodynamics/Electrolytes/Nutrition/etc.)8. Pharmacology (w/ focus on intra-op cardiac pharmacology) (OR)
o Anesthesiology Simulation Lab sessions once every two weeks.
Continued Departmental Sessions:
o TEE Lecture Series: Tuesday 12:00pm

o Anesthesiology Grand Rounds/M&M: Thursday 6:45am, RMSB 5th Fl. Aud.o CVT Anesthesia Journal Club: Friday 6:30am, JMH Cafeteriao ICU Core Lecture Series: Friday 12:00pm SICU-B Conference Room
Extra-Departmental Sessions:o Cardiology Case Presentation Conference: Monday 12:00pm, JMH C-403o ECG Conference: Tuesday 12:00pm, JMH C-403o CVT Surgery Grand Rounds/M&M: Thursday 7:00am, ET 3rd Fl. Surgery Office
Recommended Text or Reading: o A list of recommended articles and selected readings will be made available during the rotation.
Students will have access to the Anesthesiology Library, which has numerous texts available for reference, in addition to an ‘Introduction to TEE’ CD-ROM. The faculty and guest lecturers will also provide handouts.
3. Goals/Objectives: The goal of this course is to educate students on the anesthetic considerations related to cardiothoracic
surgery and familiarize the students to the management of cardiothoracic surgical patients in the post-surgical ICU setting.
During the OR portion of the course, the student will participate in preoperative evaluations and be involved with the intra-operative management of the patient. It will also be important for the student to follow the post-operative course of the patients.
During the ICU portion of the course, the student will make rounds each day, perform evaluations of postoperative patients, and help in their management. Students will be expected to present at daily rounds.
After this clerkship, the student should be able to: Clinical skill/procedural goals :
On rounds, give an oral presentation of an ICU patient in a succinct, focused manner, including H&P, assessment and plan.
Write an ICU admission note/progress note which clearly summarizes the pertinent ICU problems and delineates the student’s thought process about appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic plans
Describe or demonstrate techniques for placement of monitoring lines and devices including arterial lines, central lines, and central line guidewire exchange.
Perform a literature search on an ICU patient’s diagnosis, treatment, or prognosis and describe how to use the information to care for the patient.
Write initial mechanical ventilation orders for patients with the following conditions: ARDS, respiratory failure, COPD, asthma, post-op patients and be able to explain the rationale for the settings.
Identify preoperative risk factors for cardiac surgery Discuss the indications for invasive monitoring during cardiac surgery Form a preoperative plan specific to the patient for hemodynamic monitoring of cardiac
surgery Demonstrate an understanding of cardiovascular pathophysiology and the implications
for the administration of general anesthesia Be able to recognize basic cardiac anatomy and gross pathology on transesophageal
echocardiographic evaluation Knowledge/cognitive goals :
Students will be expected to demonstrate knowledge of airway management, acute cardio-respiratory failure responses, interpretation of blood gas and other monitoring data, mechanical ventilation, respiratory therapy, management of pain and sedation, emergency resuscitation, nutrition, invasive hemodynamic monitoring using arterial, central venous pressure and pulmonary artery catheters, management of major postoperative problems such as bleeding and sepsis, and an understanding of organ system failure and shock.
