Training Academy
Providing training for both healthcare professionals and commercially oriented stakeholders who are active in the cardiac surgery field.
Healthcare professionals
Commercially oriented stakeholders
Heartbeat’s Training Vision
In addition to face to face teaching and a clinical setting, hands on training is used in a wetlab that is tailored to the needs of the trainees. Additionally, Heartbeat offers the possibility of providing simulation education. Heartbeat has two Califia perfusion simulators with which both equipment and procedure skills can be trained in an intensive manner. Our instructors are EUSIM certified.
What’s Going On
Different target groups
We expect a variety of audiences. For example, we received teams from all over the world who work in Cardiothoracic surgery. We also received commercially oriented stakeholders.
