Evaluation of a novel fetal echocardiography training programme in two tertiary care obstetric Centres

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Improving and maintaining high detection rates for major congenital heart disease (CHD) is a priority for successful prenatal anatomy screening programmes. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the utility of on‐site multidimensional targeted training in fetal cardiac screening. Methods A prospective study evaluating a

Recommendations of the European Association of Echocardiography How to use echo-Doppler in clinical trials: different modalities for different purposes

open access: yes, 2011
The European Association of Echocardiography (EAE) has developed the present recommendations to assist clinical researchers in the design, implementation, and conduction of echocardiographic protocols for clinical trials and to guarantee their quality ...

Maternal and perinatal outcomes of pregnant women with echocardiographically high probability of pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aimed to describe maternal and perinatal outcomes among pregnant women with echocardiographically high probability of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) managed at a quaternary center and to compare outcomes between women with and without cardiac complications (CC).

Tissue Doppler echocardiography – A case of right tool, wrong use

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2004
Background The developments in echocardiography or ultrasound cardiography (UCG) have improved our clinical capabilities. However, advanced hardware and software capabilities have resulted in UCG facilities of dubious clinical benefits. Is tissue Doppler

Diagnostic Accuracy of Shear Wave Elastography for the Assessment of Congestive Liver Disease in Patients With Structural Heart Disease

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Shear wave elastography demonstrated moderate diagnostic accuracy for detecting congestive liver disease in patients with structural heart disease. Increased liver stiffness was associated with echocardiographic markers of venous congestion, supporting the concept that elastography may serve as a noninvasive marker of cardiohepatic interaction ...

Clinical use of doppler echocardiography in organic mitral regurgitation: From diagnosis to patients’ management

open access: yes, 2015
Knowledge of mitral regurgitation (MR) is essential for any care provider, and not only for those directly involved in the management of cardiovascular diseases. This happens because MR is the most frequent valvular lesion in North America and the second

Periodontitis and its association with left ventricular geometry and function: A cross‐sectional study

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigated the cross‐sectional association between periodontal status and left ventricular (LV) geometry and function, an early and prognostically relevant marker of cardiovascular disease. Methods Data were drawn from two population‐based cohorts in the Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP): SHIP‐START‐2 (N = 2333) and ...

Three-Dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiographic Vena Contracta Area for Grading Mitral Regurgitation: Severity Cut-offs From a Prospective Tunisian Cohort. [PDF]

open access: yesEchocardiography
Three‐dimensional vena contracta area (VCA) measured by transoesophageal echocardiography enables precise accurate quantification of mitral regurgitation severity. In a Tunisian cohort, 3D VCA showed strong correlations with conventional 2D indices and excellent diagnostic performance for severe MR, supporting its use particularly in rheumatic mitral ...

Developments in target micro-doppler signatures analysis: radar imaging, ultrasound and through-the-wall radar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Target motions, other than the main bulk translation of the target, induce Doppler modulations around the main Doppler shift that form what is commonly called a target micro-Doppler signature.

Cytogenetic and Molecular Findings in Hydrops‐Related Mirror Syndrome

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Mirror syndrome is a rare, life‐threatening condition in which maternal fluid overload mirrors fetal hydrops. Data on genetic findings in affected pregnancies are limited. We compared genetic diagnoses in hydrops cases with and without mirror syndrome.
