Description
Following the success of his Board Stiff and Board Stiff Too review books for the oral boards in anesthesiology, Dr. Gallagher strikes
again with Board Stiff TEE: Transesophageal Echocardiography. Humorous, yet pragmatic, this new book reviews all of the knowledge covered
in the new competence examination in perioperative transesophageal echocardiography (PTEeXAM). Schematic drawings make complex concepts
easier to understand, and a valuable appendix tackles quantitative problems associated with TEE. The result is a highly effective, enjoyable,
and affordable review tool on this increasingly important monitoring modality.
