Safety and feasibility of dopamine‐atropine stress echocardiography [PDF]

, 2021
Background Dobutamine-atropine stress echocardiography (DSE) has lower sensitivity in patients with advanced liver disease (ALD) due to vasodilation. Hypothesis Dopamine-atropine stress echocardiography (DopSE) may be an alternative to DSE in ALD ...

A simplified definition of diastolic function in sepsis, compared against standard definitions

Journal of Intensive Care, 2019
Background Guidelines for grading diastolic dysfunction poorly categorize septic patients. We compared how well the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) 2009 and 2016 definitions and a simplified definition categorized septic patients.
