Point-of-Care Ultrasound in Predicting Adverse Outcomes in Emergency Department Patients With Acute Pulmonary Embolism
This study is an observational, prospective study examining the role point-of-care echocardiography of predicting short term adverse outcomes in emergency department patients with acute pulmonary embolism. The primary objective is to assess the diagnostic performance of ultrasound-guided measures of right ventricular dilation (RVD) and strain in predicting clinical outcomes in …

Evaluation of the Right Ventricular Systolic Function Using Real-time Three-dimensional Echocardiography in Intensive Care Unit Patients
For this reason, the evaluation of RV systolic function is currently based on parameters used as surrogates of RVEF: fraction area change in 2D-mode, tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) in M-mode, and maximal velocity of the systolic S' wave using tissue Doppler imaging. Real-time three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography now enables …

Myocardial Contrast Echocardiography in Septic Patients
Myocardial microcirculatory alterations may be involved in the pathogenesis of acute cardiac dysfunction or septic cardiomyopathy in septic patients. The investigators study the cardiac function (systolic and diastolic) with two-dimensional echocardiography (TTE), and the myocardial microcirculation with contrast echocardiography (MCE) and sulphur hexafluoride microbubbles Sonovue injection in ICU septic patients.
