Haemodynamics
Format: Virtual
Dates: April 6-8, 2022
Master Class Director:
Michelle CHEW MD, PhD, Professor Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine, Linköping University Hospital, Linköping, Sweden
Xavier MONNET MD, PhD, Professor of Intensive Care, Medical Intensive Care Unit, Bicêtre Hospital, Paris-Saclay University Hospitals, Paris, France; Chair Cardiovascular Dynamics Section, ESICM
Endorsement: The Master Class is endorsed by the Cardiovascular Dynamics Section, ESICM.
IMPORTANT! For the face-to-face workshop on Haemodynamics, you are invited to join LIVES 40, Madrid, on May 12-14, 2022.
For more details, visit LIVES 40. Registration for LIVES 40 is not included in the Master Class fee.
The master class on Haemodynamics provides participants with a solid view of the field of cardiovascular physiology and haemodynamic monitoring in the ICU. A high level of interaction is the core feature of these 3 days of learning. This will be guaranteed thanks to interactive lectures, focus sessions, case-based discussions, gamification and immersive learning through virtual reality. Due to the current uncertain context, the master class has been re-formatted into virtual training, making use of agile virtual environments and responsive, innovative solutions. Join us in this new adventure!
After registering for the event, ensure you access the pre-course materials available for study in the dedicated online classroom on the ESICM Academy.
Please note that ONLY registered participants can access the dedicated classroom.

Highlights of previous editions
2021 – November
Thanks to its incredible success, we held a second, virtual edition of the Haemodynamic Monitoring Master Class! A total of 14 experts and 78 participants from 26 countries engaged in this highly interactive course.
- Thanks to all professors and the organizers and all the participants for this amazing course
- Despite world time, I learnt a lot, that was so good to improve my knowledge about hemodynamics, thanks a lot
- Thank you so much for 3 great days!
- Thanks to all, I learned a lot
2021 – April
Despite the uncertain context, the third edition of the Haemodynamic Monitoring Master Class has just wrapped up, this time virtually! A total of 11 experts and 83 participants from 25 countries engaged in interactive activities and case-based discussions. Here are some of their comments on this innovative educational format:
- Thank you very much to all the excellent faculty and all participants, I learnt a lot.
- Excellent masterclass as always!
- Thank you Master Speakers! Thank you all! Great experience!
- It was an amazing Master Class with high-level of knowledge with top experts
2020
The 2nd edition of the Haemodynamic Monitoring Master Class has just wrapped up. A total of 13 experts and 54 participants from 19 countries came together for 3 days at the ESICM Training Centre in Brussels. Here are some of their comments on what they liked best about their experience:
- Everything went well. Excellent organisation and speakers, with great proximity between all the participants.
- Opportunity to learn very closely from world experts on haemodynamics. The structural progression from basic to advanced concepts.
- Experts bringing together physiology with evidence; motivated team; a combination of lecture, group work, hands-on
- The friendly, open environment to have different opinions and be respected. Talks about physiology and up to date clinical approaches !!! Great. The class was a big kick-off to make better step towards the clinical practice and treatment of seriously sick patients.
- Its clinical relevance
- Perfect balance between theoretical sessions and hands-on! Q&A with papers was very efficient because many people don’t like to speak.
2019
The 1st edition of the Haemodynamic Monitoring Master Class has just wrapped up. A total of 14 experts and 51 participants from 22 countries came together for 2 days at the ESICM Training Centre in Brussels. Here are some of their comments on what they liked best about their experience:
- Excellent speakers!
- Practical simulation workshops with manikins and web-based interactive case scenarios
- Leading expert presence, Interactivity, Clinical cases discussions, Simulation scenarios
- High degree of clinical applicability of the presented material
- Personally I would have liked more time practicing with the echocardiography mannequin
