ECHO equipment
� The ECHO transducers:
– Frequency of transducer: 3.5-
5Mhz
– Phased array of pizeo-electric
crystals in the transducer
– Small foot-print: to struggle
between the intercostal spaces
– An index marker available for
orientation

ECHO patients� Undress the top
� Supine position
� Turn slightly left lateral for better ECHO image
� Bend the knee up for subcostal views; Hyperextend the neck for suprasternal views
� Adequate Sonic Gel
� With 3-lead ECG monitor
� Poor ECHO images in:– Morbid Obese
– COAD/hyperinflated chest
– Chest wall deformity
– ?Big Breast

Orientation of ECHO image
� Based on the standards
recommended by American
Society of Echocardiography
– The image index marker should
appear on the right side of the
image display [reverse for
Mayo Clinic Technique]
– In contrast to the conventional
abdominal USG [left side
orientation]
Circulation 1980 62: 212-217

ECHO (acoustic) windows
� In order for the USG beam to reach the heart
without being obscured by the ribs or absorbed by
the lung (air space),
� Several orthodox windows are commonly used:
– Parasternal window
– Apical window
– Subcostal window
– Suprasternal window
– Right parasternal window

� Overall Gain:
– Chamber cavities should be black while the ventricular walls should appear grey.
� Time Gain Control:
– Reversed C-shaped for parasternal and apical views
– \-shaped or curved in subcostal views
� Depth of view:
– The screen should be about 1/5 beyond the posterior pericardium.
� Focal Zone:
– Focus at the valve level
– Mid part of ventricle for LV measurements

Emergency ECHO
� 1st employed in ED in 1980s in USA
� Allows rapid recognition of life-threatening conditions and direct appropriate intervention and treatments.
� Mainly a focused exam and try to answer clinical questions
� Most situations require only a 2D scan. Doppler may help.

Cardiac Tamponade
� Pericardial effusion causing haemodynamic

in pericardial sac can have significant
haemodynamic effect. [rigid fibrous sac]

hypotension

LV systolic Fx Evaluation
� Useful in managing hypotensive patients
� To differentiate cardiogenic or non-
cardiogenic shock
� LV systolic fx can be accurately assessed by
EP in hypotensive patients.

– Simpson’s Method
– Apical 2 or 4 chamber view

� Normally IVC collapsed with inspiration
� Hypovolaemia: collapsed IVC

� Possibly detectable Causes by ECHO:
– AMI, ACS—regional wall motion abnormality
– Aortic Dissection—dialated Ao, visible intimal
flap
– Pulmonary Embolism—dilated RV and IVC,
visible thrombus in RV/PA
– Pericarditis with effusion—pericardial effusion

� Only 43% of confirmed patients with AD
were suspected by EP and up to 28% was
