TEE Time is the first-of-its-kind video podcast dedicated to the use of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in the perioperative setting. It is specifically designed for anesthesiologists, cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, cardiac sonographers, emergency medicine providers, and cardiac ICU team members. Dr. Andreas Plackis is a triple board-certified, Vanderbilt-trained cardiac anesthesiologist and TEE enthusiast whose mission is to transform perioperative TEE education by delivering high-yield, concise video episodes packed with clinically relevant TEE tips and expert recommendations to elevate your practice. TEE Time episodes take a case-based approach, diving deep into how TEE is best utilized throughout the perioperative setting, including valve repair and replacement, temporary and durable mechanical support, aortic dissection, heart and lung transplants, structural heart interventions, rescue echo, non-cardiac surgery, and much more! If you want to enhance your TEE skills and improve patient care, subscribe now and join on this journey to mastering perioperative TEE!

13. TEE for Mitral Valve Repair (MVr) Surgery
In Episode 13 of TEE Time, Dr. Andreas Plackis explores the critical role of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in guiding mitral valve repair surgery. This episode offers a deep dive into key decision points such as repair versus replacement, comprehensive pre- and post-bypass TEE assessments, and the echocardiographic markers that influence surgical strategy. Dr. Plackis breaks down the benefits of repair, factors that predict success or failure, and the technical steps for a thorough TEE evaluation. Listeners will also gain insight into surgical goals, common repair techniques, strategies to prevent systolic anterior motion (SAM), and how to assess repair effectiveness after bypass. Whether you’re in training or refining your expertise, this episode delivers essential, high-yield knowledge to optimize outcomes in mitral valve surgery.
