On-Demand webinar with expert cardiologist Dr. Robert Shiroff
Dr. Robert Shiroff discusses the benefits of serial echos, when to do them, and how they can improve organ utilization. In some cases, when a heart has received an insult as a result of brain death, trauma or other factors, a series of echos (serial echos) can help determine if a heart is recovering, or if the damage is too much to transplant. Drawing from multiple case studies, Dr. Shiroff will show how tracking heart progress over time with a series of echos can be beneficial during donor management in determining a viable heart for transplant.
