I HOSPITAL LOCATIONS II FACULTY III EDUCATIONAL OVERVIEW IV TEE and SURFACE ECHO V BRONCHOSCOPY TRAINING VI RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES VII SAN DIEGO AREA ATTRACTIONS VIII APPLICATION PROCESS IX CONTACT INFORMATION Educational Overview:Core and Elective Rotations • Each fellow will spend 9-11 months of clinical training in Thornton ICU (T-ICU) and Sulpizio Cardiovascular Center (S-CVC) ICU. The bulk of primary patient management will occur in the T-ICU, most of the clinical experience in the S-CVC ICU will be consultative, but for certain surgeons, the Fellow will have primary management responsibilities as well. • In addition, the Fellow can opt for 1-2 months of elective time either on corollary services with relevance to critical care (e.g. Infectious Disease, Cardiology Service, TEE Service), or they can spend time in the UCSD Burn Unit at Hillcrest or the UCSD Trauma/SICU also at Hillcrest.

7. Educational Overview (cont.).Expectations & Goals • The primary goal of the core fellowship training (occurring at T-ICU/S-CVC ICU) is to provide the fellow with clinical experience in the management of critically ill surgical &(some) medical patients. • The Fellow will also develop expertise in coordinating a multidisciplinary team, and in all of the common procedures used in CCM. • Training in TEE, TTE, & Bronchoscopy will be specifically emphasized & provided to all fellows.
