I thought we had abandoned the idea that bon-compaction represented a cardiomyopathy in itself, rather than a feauture of both patjological and physiological remodelling? #echofirst #cardiosjy jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

The Bernoulli equation (simplified to 4 * V squared) is used in every echo to estimate pressure gradients from velocities. One source of error is widely ignored I belive. #echofirst #pocus #emimcc

Another study from my colleagues on the impact on aberration correction (an image quality improvement method in #echofirst) on volume quantification. More important for assessing anatomy than volumes it seems #cardiosky

Great to see this sobering study out on the feasibility and accuracy of 3D #echofirst methods from my dear colleagues #cardiosky

What I love about echocardiography in critical care is how you can see physiology unfolding before your eyes. This is a case that has stayed with me and shaped how I think about treating acute LVOT obstruction #cccsky #echofirst #pocus #emimcc

Great paper on RA flow patterns with relevance for examinations for PFO #echofirst

If the LV of the patient with sepsis is «hyperdynamic» when on noradrenaline, then EF dropps and the LV looks poorly when vasopressin is added, but recovers to normal with dobutamine, you likely haven’t «uncovered hidden LV dysfunction» or septic cardiomyopathy. #emimcc #pocus #echofirst 1/
