Describe the acoustic windows and echocardiographic views required for optimal evaluation of the right heart. Describe the echocardiographic parameters required in routine and di-rected echocardiographic studies and the views to obtain these parameters for assessing RV size and function.
26 sie 2024 · Right heart catheterization may be more valuable in right ventricular failure since RHC directly investigates the affected cardiac chambers. RHC may be useful in revealing previously unrecognized right ventricular failure in the context of patients with left ventricular failure.
18 lut 2022 · Introduction. The past two decades have seen tremendous advances in the catheter-based treatment of structural heart diseases (SHD) thanks to the development of new devices with improved performance and advances in imaging techniques. Cardiac imaging in the catheter-based treatment of SHD has come a long way in the past 70 years (Figure 1).
TEE can demonstrate a 2-chamber view using a mid-esophageal right ventricular inflow view at 100° to 120° (bicaval angle, rotated toward the right), a low-esophageal right atrial view, or a transgastric right ventricular inflow (long-axis) view at 110° to 130°.
25 sty 2022 · RA end-systolic area and volume are assessed from an apical four-chamber view focused on the right heart using echocardiography. The same view is used to assess RA function using speckle tracking echocardiography.
Utilize the 3-point planner to establish the first point in the right atrium, the second point in the mid pulmonary trunk, and the third point at the pulmonary artery bifurcation. The planning block will then automatically align parallel to the right ventricular outflow tract.
