Senior Clinical Fellow in Cardiothoracic Anaesthesia
2 days ago
Cardiac surgical procedures undertaken at LHCH range from more routine cardiac surgical operations including CABG and valve surgeries to complex aortovascular and ACHD surgery. We additionally anaesthetise patients undergoing interventional cardiology procedures including TAVI, other structural procedures including for ACHD and electrophysiological procedures.
transoesophageal echocardiography will also be offered, and the trainee will be supported and encouraged to accredit with the British Society of Echocardiography.
Clinical Fellows in Cardiothoracic Anaesthesia will also be supported to gain experience of the elective management of patients presenting for thoracic surgical procedures via thoracotomy, video-assisted thoracoscopy and robotically. There will be opportunities to gain experience of the management of patients undergoing procedures involving a shared airway, including rigid bronchoscopy for management of benign and malignant disease. Training in performance of regional anaesthetic techniques for the chest wall will also be provided.
Progress will be monitored with support of the educational supervisor and departmental leads, and it is expected that increasing independence will be gained in management of patients presenting for elective surgery and that on call and service provision duties will then also be reviewed in line with this.
As the largest single site specialist heart and chest hospital in the UK, we, at Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital, have a clear vision 'to be the best cardiothoracic integrated healthcare organisation'.
We provide specialist services in cardiothoracic surgery, cardiology, respiratory medicine both in the hospital and out in the community.
We serve a catchment area of 2.8 million people, spanning Merseyside, Cheshire, North Wales and the Isle of Man, and increasingly we receive referrals from outside these areas for highly specialised services such as aortics.
Our reputation for strong performance is important in delivering the best care for our patients and high quality clinical services. This is underpinned by a culture of research and innovation, delivered in modern estate and our encouragement of flexible working in a variety of forms.
Peri-operative management of patients undergoing cardiac, thoracic, aortic and cardiology procedures including pre-operative assessment and post-operative management in the critical care.
