This is absolutely fascinating! I look forward to seeing well done randomised trials in man when the time comes (but no use until then). #echosky

Forward ejection fraction (LVOT derived stroke volume divided by end diastolic volume) is an interesting concept in mitral regurgitation. Conceptually, it's what the EF would be if it wasn't for the preload reduction from the MI. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... #cardiosky #echosky

Forward Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction: A Simple Risk Marker in Patients With Primary Mitral Regurgitation

The timing of mitral valve surgery in asymptomatic patients with primary mitral regurgitation (MR) is controversial. We hypothesized that the forward left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (LVEF; ie, LV outflow tract stroke volume divided by LV ...

Something that’s rarely if ever mentioned in guidelines and manuals about echocardiography is always asking the question «do the numbers add up?» This is not just central to divulging measurement error but also harder to find pathologies. #echosky #pocusky
Anyone have good recommendations for procedural guidance for septal myectomy? #cardiosky #ansky #echosky
I was just reminded that I once made an autoportrait of my distal LAD flow in 3D (and got it published!) #echosky #cardiosky pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29993929/
The toughest left sided valvular dysfunction to assess is without a doubt aortic regurgitation. #echosky #cardiosky
