Case ContentThe case simulator puts the participant in a simulated echocardiographic reading station. He or she will be presented with a series of cases for interpretation and/or measurement. The available images are to be reviewed and then a report generated from a diagnostic tree with numerous possible comments, just as is done in the real world of echocardiography. This is not a multiple choice quiz where the answer is present and you need to guess which one it is. The learning premise is that you will remember that which you got wrong longer than that which you got right. Users will have ample opportunity to learn from your mistakes. Case improvements have been made to accommodate a wider audience, such as sonographers in training, cardiology fellows and non-cardiologists who conduct point-of-care echocardiography. In general, case content is divided into two segments: Practice Cases - We offer both Measurement and Interpretation case types. Review Cases - These are the cases required to achieve CME credit. They are updated on a quarterly basis. |
“Over the past three years, the Ke Labs’ [Echo Test and Teach product] has become an indispensable component to our echocardiographic missions of teaching, patient care and research.”
Distinguished Professor of Medicine | Indiana University | School of Medicine
“Throughout med school, I had been exposed to echo in a variety of settings, but using this was definitely the most educational of all of them.”
“Overall, this is an invaluable tool to all level learners including medical students, residents and cardiology fellows who desire a hands-on approach to learning echocardiography.”
“[The Echo Test and Teach product] further supported the idea of learning by mistakes. The scenario-based learning also helped to be able to easily take the learning experience to real patient applications.”
“I would highly recommend [the Echo Test and Teach product] to those in need of an opportunity to enhance the quality and efficiency of the work they do.”
Manager for Non-Invasive Cardiology, IU Health Methodist and University Hospitals
