Abstract
Enhancing resuscitative transesophageal echocardiography training by integrating clinical scenariosTo the Editor, Recent research indicates that transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) during resuscitation may cause delays in chest compressions, potentially impacting the quality of resuscitation. 1,2Additionally, resuscitation equipment, such as mechanical compression devices and defibrillators, can interfere with TTE image acquisition and interpretation.Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) offers a solution to these limitations by providing real-time cardiac imaging without interrupting chest compressions.However, TEE is costly, invasive, and
