Live From The Heart
The surgical team works together in the OR. The Program
You will work alongside an experienced surgical team as they perform a bypass procedure on a patient's heart. You'll complete an Investigation Journal as you watch the surgery, logging important facts and observations, recording key questions and answers and creating sketches of various aspects of the heart. Finally, you'll do some investigative work about the surgical team, determining who really does what in the operating room – and how they got their job in the first place. Good luck, Junior Heart Doc. Your patient is counting on you!
