Goals for the year:

- Develop projects with the ACEP Critical Care Medicine Section and collaborate with other professional medical societies.
- Create opportunities for networking and mentoring for program development and research.
These critical care advanced echo cards were developed as a quick reference to support teaching and practice. We hope these tools can serve as a visual map to help hone the essential concepts and techniques. We thank our team from the critical care subcommittee.
