Assessment of left ventricular filling pressure with Doppler velocities across the patent foramen ovale
ConclusionsDoppler-derived peak PFO velocities could be valuable in the assessment of increased LV filling pressure using 1.7 m/s as the cut-off value. (Source: Journal of Echocardiography)

Screening for aortic stenosis using physical examination and echocardiography
AbstractMost patients with aortic stenosis (AS) can be treated with either traditional surgical aortic valve replacement or newly emerged transcatheter aortic valve implantation. Therefore, the early and appropriate detection of significant AS has become more important for avoiding overlooking patients who require treatment. AS is initially detected by the presence of a systolic ejection murmur (SEM). However, it is time-consuming and expensive for all subjects presenting with SEM to undergo comprehensive standard echocardiography using high-end ultrasound machines since the SEM is audible in a large proportion of elderly ...

Transesophageal echocardiography in patients with cardiac arrest: from high-quality chest compression to effective resuscitation
AbstractBackgroundSurvival after cardiac arrest depends on prompt and effective cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) can be applied to evaluate the effectiveness of chest compression –decompression maneuvers in the setting of cardiac arrest undergoing CPR. The efficacy of chest compression can be continuously assessed by TEE that can improve the effectiveness of CPR guiding the rescuer to optimize or correct chest compression and decompression by directly examining the movemen ts of the cardiac walls and valve leaflets.PurposeThe review describes how to perform TEE in the emergency s...

Practical guidance for echocardiography for cancer therapeutics-related cardiac dysfunction
AbstractThe prognosis of patients with cancer has improved due to an early diagnosis of cancer and advances in cancer treatment. There are emerging reports on cardiotoxicity in cancer treatment and on cardiovascular disease in cancer patients, from which cardiovascular disease has been recognized as a common cause of death among cancer survivors. This situation has led to the need for a medical system in which oncologists and cardiologists work together to treat patients. With the growing importance of onco-cardiology, the role of echocardiography in cancer care is rapidly expanding, but at present, the practice of echocar...
