SCA Micro Courses

The Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists (SCA) is an international member organization with cardiac, thoracic and vascular anesthesiologists that promotes excellence in clinical care, education, and research.

The use of portable bedside ultrasound machines is dramatically changing patient assessment and management in the peri-operative, anesthesia, critical care, emergency medicine, surgery and internal medicine fields. It is being rapidly adopted as mainstream practice.

The SCA have collaborated with iTeachU to deliver the SCA Micro Courses -Clinical Ultrasound & Echocardiography to physicians around the world. These comprehensive courses offer echocardiography (TTE and TEE) and other uses of clinical ultrasound including vascular access, lung ultrasound, ultrasound-guided regional anaesthesia, FAST and DVT assessment.

The aim of the SCA Micro Courses is to provide topic focused educational courses in specific learning areas. These short courses are cost and time effective with the average learning time of 1 month for a single course or 3 months for a package course.

The SCA Micro Courses are endorsed by The Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists (SCA). SCA Certificate of Completion will be sent via email upon all assessments and case studies are completed.

The SCA Micro Courses provide flexible eLearning so students can study when and wherever convenient. Course materials can be accessed through the iTeachU app on smartphones and tablets with iOS, Android or Windows systems.
