Standing transthoracic echocardiography: a feasibility study [PDF]

Echo Research and Practice
Background Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is associated with cardiovascular disease, particularly among older adults. While a standing transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) could theoretically identify changes in cardiac output to diagnose cardiogenic OH ...

Transthoracic Echocardiography of the Neonatal Laboratory Piglet [PDF]

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2019
Background: Newborn piglets are commonly used in biomedical research. However, cardiovascular imaging of this species is quite challenging. For point of care diagnostics of heart function transthoracic echocardiography may be used, which appears to ...

Basic transthoracic echocardiography [PDF]

BMJ, 2005
Transthoracic echocardiography is one of the most commonly performed cardiac investigations. It can provide comprehensive information about cardiac structure and function, helping to establish a diagnosis and guide therapy, and is no longer the preserve of the specialist cardiology department.

Assessment of Right Ventricular Function With CT and Echocardiography in Patients With Severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome on Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Critical Care Explorations, 2021
Objectives:. Changes in right ventricular size and function are frequently observed in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. The majority of patients who receive venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation undergo chest CT and ...

Transthoracic Echocardiography in Mice [PDF]

Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2010
In recent years, murine models have become the primary avenue for studying the molecular mechanisms of cardiac dysfunction resulting from changes in gene expression. Transgenic and gene targeting methods can be used to generate mice with altered cardiac size and function, and as a result, in vivo techniques are needed to evaluate their cardiac ...

Novelties in 3D Transthoracic Echocardiography [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2021
Cardiovascular imaging is developing at a rapid pace and the newer modalities, in particular three-dimensional echocardiography, allow better analysis of heart structures. Identifying valve lesions and grading their severity represents crucial information and nowadays is strengthened by the introduction of new software, such as transillumination, which

Pulmonary hypertension predicts higher mortality in patients admitted with severe COVID-19 infection

SAGE Open Medicine, 2023
Objective: Patients with underlying conditions are predicted to have worse outcomes with COVID-19. A strong association between baseline cardiovascular disease and COVID-19-related mortality has been shown by a number of studies.

Point-of-care transthoracic echocardiography [PDF]

Clinical Medicine, 2021
Editor – The point is well made that increased use of computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) in patients with low pretest probability of pulmonary embolism (PE) might pose unnecessary risk of harm to patients, and might also be an inappropriate use of scarce resources.
