The Role of Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Predicting Mortality and Morbidity in Patients with Congenital Heart Disease: a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) is now routinely included in cardiac evaluations, but its role in predicting mortality and morbidity in congenital heart disease (CHD) is not well described. We conducted a systematic review to evaluate the prognostic value of STE in patients with CHD. (Source: Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography)

Comparing Costs of Non-invasive Cardiac Diagnostic Tests – a Population-based Study
Non-invasive cardiac diagnostic tests for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (NIT) have been estimated to cost> $3 billion annually in the United States alone and have undergone recent scrutiny over concerns of overuse. Consequently, comparing costs of different NIT testing strategies is of urgent importance to healthcare planning. (Source: Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography)

Long-Term Impact of Small Mitral Valve Orifice Area After Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Mitral Valve Repair on Clinical Outcome: A 3D Echocardiography Study
This study aimed to investigate the association between postprocedural small MVA, derived from three-dimensional (3D) transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), and long-term clinical outcomes in two cohorts; the degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR) cohort and the functional MR cohort.

Seeing the Smoke and Seeking the Fire: Pharmacovigilance of Ultrasound-Enhancing Agents in the Postpandemic Era
In the old days of fighting forest fires, among the primary tools for the early detection of wildfires were fire lookout towers. Perched high on mountaintops, these towers were staffed by observers who spent their days and nights surveilling the landscape for the early wisps of smoke that signaled a potential fire. Once smoke was detected, an immediate investigation was launched to seek out and confirm the fire to alert people, protect property, and preserve land. Echocardiography lab staff play a similar role in the surveillance and reporting of clinical adverse events (AEs) that can occur in the practice of modern-day ec...

American Society of Echocardiography COVID-19 Statement Update: Lessons Learned and Preparation for Future Pandemics
The COVID-19 pandemic has evolved since the publication of the initial American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) statements providing guidance to echocardiography laboratories. In light of new developments, the ASE convened a diverse, expert writing group to address the current state of the COVID-19 pandemic and to apply lessons learned to echocardiography laboratory operations in future pandemics. This statement addresses important areas specifically impacted by the current and future pandemics: (1) indications for echocardiography, (2) application of echocardiographic services in a pandemic, (3) infection/transmission m...

The Pivotal Role of ASE in Promoting Early Career Clinician Scientists
In this month ’s President’s Message, I would like to continue my theme of highlighting ASE’s core values. I believe that our Society’s commitment to scholarly activities and cutting-edge research truly embodies our core values of excellence and advancing knowledge. These research efforts are pivotal to o ur membership and to our strategic vision to be the leader in all facets of cardiovascular ultrasound. I have asked Daniel Forsha, co-chair of our Research Committee, to update our members regarding our research mission at ASE and how it has impacted his and many others’ academic careers.
