Survey of Management of Seizures After Cardiac Surgery
Seizures after surgery can prolong hospital stays and may have neurological complications. Unfortunately, there is very limited information in this field and there is a lack of a standard approach to caring for these patients acutely and in the long-term. We want to gather information on the various practices in different cardiac surgical intensive care units. This information will help us create a standardized approach to postoperative seizure management and inform future research in this patient population.
Please share this survey with your cardiac intensivists, nurse practitioners, and/or physician assistants who are invited to participate in this short electronic survey. The survey should take less than 30 minutes. [https://redcap.link/apeaqa5m].

Women’s Heart Health and Cardio-Obstetrics Training in Canada
This is a survey-based study of practicing cardiologists and cardiology trainees in Canada to describe the current training practices (including clinical and didactic teaching exposures) on women’s heart health and cardio-obstetrics. Our goal is to determine the current state of education on these topics, assess the self-perceived comfort level of practicing cardiologists and cardiology trainees in managing various cardiovascular conditions in women, and explore the perceived value of a formal training curriculum on women’s heart health and cardio-obstetrics.
