BRIEF RESEARCH COMMUNICATIONS • Development of a New Technique for Ultrasound Imaging of the Innominate Vein and the Venous Angle

WhiteSwell is a new treatment for acute decompensated heart failure involving placing a device at the left venous angle to create a low-pressure zone to facilitate thoracic duct lymph ﬂow. In order to facilitate this, the authors developed a new technique using two acoustic windows with a microcon...

REVIEW ARTICLE/BRIEF REVIEW • Echocardiography Findings in Amniotic Fluid Embolism: A Systematic Review of the Literature

Amniotic ﬂuid embolism (AFE) – one of the leading causes of maternal death in high-income countries – is a rare clinical syndrome reported to complicate one to eight per 100,000 pregnancies with a mortality rate between 20% and 60%. Presentation includes profound maternal hypotension (with or ...

CLINICAL INVESTIGATIONS • Passive Leg Raise Stress Echocardiography in Severe Paradoxical Low-Flow, Low-Gradient Aortic Stenosis

Management of aortic stenosis (AS) – the most common valvular heart disease in Europe and North America – is done by catheter intervention or surgery; in severe symptomatic AS, valve replacement is the treatment of choice. Diagnosis of severe AS, which is defined as an aortic valve area (AVA) �...

ORIGINAL ARTICLE • Exploratory Study to Assess Feasibility of Intracerebral Hemorrhage Detection by Point of Care Cranial Ultrasound.

Use of ultrasound for detection of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) using diagnostic high end transcranial color-coded duplex machines has been only limited studied. There is no published literature on imaging techniques and parenchymal topography for cranial B mode imaging. Studies assessing feasibil...

ORIGINAL ARTICLE • Retrospective Analysis of the Diagnostic Accuracy of Lung Ultrasound for Pulmonary Embolism in Patients with and without Pleuritic Chest Pain

Pleuritic chest pain – sharp chest pain exacerbated by breathing or coughing – is a common presenting symptom in the emergency department (ED) and requires a careful differential diagnosis between benign conditions such as musculoskeletal pain, and more serious diseases like pulmonary embolism (...

RESEARCH • Doppler Study of Portal Vein and Renal Venous Velocity Predict the Appropriate Fluid Response to Diuretic in ICU: A Prospective Observational Echocardiographic Evaluation.

There has been a growing interest in the diagnosis and treatment of fluid overload and venous congestion in recent years. Fluid overload implies peripheral edema but also could result in pulmonary edema and venous congestion, which can alter tissue perfusion. Several studies have shown an associat...

THE HEMODYNAMIC CORNER • Aortic Stenosis Severity: Rhythm Makes a Difference

The assessment of aortic valve stenosis (AS) severity based on Doppler velocity and pressure gradient is ﬂow dependent. Both velocity and pressure gradient increase with elevated transaortic ﬂows and decrease with reduction in ﬂow rates for a given aortic valve oriﬁce area. In this case repo...

REVIEW • Cardiac Imaging for Diagnosis and Management of Infective Endocarditis

In-hospital mortality of infective endocarditis (IE) remains approximately 20%, and 1-year mortality approaches 40%. Decision-making in patients with IE is often complex, requiring collaboration among cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, and infectious disease specialists, among others. Although echocar...
