🫀 How do we teach cardiac surgery at the First Faculty of Medicine, Charles University?

💡 At our Faculty, a unique hands-on workshop on mitral valve reconstruction took place in collaboration with the company's Surgeon.

👉 Young cardiac surgeons practiced procedures on pig hearts and special models—techniques they normally wouldn’t encounter during standard training. This hands-on approach in postgraduate education helps doctors gain skills and, most importantly, confidence for future operations.

🤩 We’re proud to educate a new generation of top-level specialists and to push the boundaries of cardiac surgery care.
