Episode 7: TEE for CABG Surgery -  Part 2: Valvular Disorders, Post-MI Complications, and other findings in CABG Surgery

In this episode of TEE Time, host Dr. Andreas Plackis discusses the importance of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) during coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, focusing on valvular assessment and post-myocardial infarction (MI) mechanical complications. Dr. Plackis examines moderate valvular disorders such as aortic stenosis, aortic regurgitation, and secondary mitral regurgitation, referencing the latest guidelines from the ACC/AHA and European societies. He also dives into the significance of post-MI complications like ventricular septal defects, LV free wall rupture, and papillary muscle rupture. The episode concludes with a summary of key points for performing TEE effectively during CABG and a preview of the upcoming valve series.
