Abstract
Cardiothoracic surgical critical care has emerged as a unique area of practice within cardiothoracic surgery. Leaders of multidisciplinary, high-performing teams are uniquely educated, trained, and skilled surgeons. Certification in this specialty by the American Board of Thoracic Surgery is a recognition of their distinction. A foundational framework is proposed toward this goal.
