Pediatric CVICU Fellowship

Pediatric CVICU Fellowship

Our Heart Center is the premier regional referral center for the specialized care of infants and children with congenital heart disease and is the fifth-largest program in the country. As part of its mission, our Heart Center is helping train the next generation of leaders in the field of Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care Medicine.

Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care Medicine has become increasingly specialized over time as the conditions of patients have become more complicated. There is no greater example of this than the field of Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care Medicine, where providing excellent care to these very complex patients requires training beyond what is provided in most Pediatric Critical Care Medicine fellowships is required. In addition, as the number of children with congenital heart disease in society continues to grow, there becomes a greater demand for highly trained physicians to care for them.

The Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care Medicine Fellowship provides trainees the necessary specific knowledge base and experience to perform the comprehensive management of critically ill pediatric patients with congenital or acquired heart disease. This non-ACGME accredited 12-month didactic and clinical training program is intended for individuals who have completed an accredited fellowship in Pediatric Critical Care Medicine or Pediatric Cardiology and are interested in achieving expertise in the most advanced aspects of Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care Medicine.
