Focused echocardiographic examinations performed by intensivists and emergency room physicians can be a valuable tool for diagnosing managing the hemodynamic status of critically ill children. The aim this study was to evaluate learning curve achieved using theoretical practical training program designed enable pediatric conduct targeted echocardiograms.Theoretical sessions were conducted with 16 intensivist/emergency physicians. included qualitative analyses left ventricular (LV) right (RV)...
Objective The objective of this article is to evaluate right ventricle strain imaging by two-dimensional speckle-tracking (2DST) in childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (c-SLE). Methods Thirty-five c-SLE patients with no signs or symptoms heart failure and 33 healthy volunteers were evaluated standard echocardiogram 2DST. Conventional parameters included tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), RV tissue-Doppler-derived Tei index pulmonary artery pressure. Global peak...
1. Introdução De acordo com as "Normas para Elaboração de Diretrizes, Posicionamentos e Normatizações" sancionadas pela Sociedade Brasileira Cardiologia, este documento foi escrito atualizar indicações da ecocardiografia em cardiologia fetal, pediátrica cardiopatias congênitas do adulto, complementa o posicionamento sobre adultos, recentemente publicado.1 Tal não pretende ser uma ampla revisão congênitas, mas sim um guia básico indispensável amparar a tomada decisão clínica racional médico [...]
Resumo Fundamento: As complicações cardiovasculares são a principal causa de morte em pacientes pediátricos com doença renal crônica (DRC). A avaliação ecocardiográfica da função diastólica na DRC tem se limitado à espectral por Doppler e tecidual, técnicas sabidamente menos confiáveis pediatria. O strain do átrio esquerdo (AE) pela técnica speckle tracking bidimensional (2DST) foi recentemente confirmada como uma medida robusta diastólica. Objetivos: Investigar o papel AE crianças...
To investigate the influence of respiratory distress syndrome management on clinical and echocardiographic parameters used for hemodynamic evaluation in ≤ 32- week newborns.Thirty-three 32-week newborns were prospectively evaluated subjected to invasive mechanical ventilation. The need exogenous surfactant first 24 hours life was detailed this group patients.The mean airway pressure significantly higher newborn infants who required inotropes [10.8 (8.8 - 23) cmH2O versus 9 (6.2 12) cmH2O; p...
Abstract Background Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS‐c) is associated with severe cardiovascular impairment and eventually death. Pathophysiological mechanisms involved myocardial injury were scarcely investigated, outcomes are uncertain. Autopsy studies suggested that microvascular dysfunction may be relevant to LV impairment. Objective We aimed evaluate segmental longitudinal strain by 2DST echocardiography flow reserve (MFR) 13 N‐ammonia PET‐CT, six surviving MIS‐c...
COVID-19 pandemic represents a huge burden to the health system in world. Although pediatric patients have been relatively spared compared with adults, recent reports showed an increasing number of critically ill multisystemic inflammatory syndrome children (MIS-c), marked cardiovascular impairment. Nevertheless, little is known about relationship between cardiac abnormalities and coagulation biomarkers.to investigate echocardiographic admitted tertiary hospital.this was retrospective...
Background: The effects of HIV and antiretroviral therapy on cardiovascular system perinatally infected children throughout their development are not fully understood. Objectives: To determine the prevalence cardiac abnormalities in a retrospective cohort HIV-infected patients to investigate associations between echocardiographic clinical data during follow-up. Methods: Review medical records echocardiogram reports 148 January 1991 December 2015. Results: Four hundred eighty echocardiograms...
Abstract Background: Cardiovascular complications are the leading cause of mortality in pediatric patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Echocardiographic assessment diastolic function CKD has been limited to spectral and tissue Doppler imaging, known be less reliable techniques pediatrics. Two-dimensional Speckle tracking echocardiography (2DST) derived left atrial (LA) strain recently confirmed as a robust measure function. Objectives: To investigate LA role children at different...
Com o avanço tecnológico, exame físico não é mais suficiente para uma avaliação assertiva de pacientes criticamente enfermos, principalmente em reécm-nascidos prematuros onde os sinais clínicos podem ser interpretados forma objetiva. Desta forma, há um grande interesse no treinamento médicos neonatologistas sua realização, determinando que grandes centros mundiais já façam permanente nos seus programas residência e educação médica continuada. O presente artigo revisão trata da nossa...
Abstract Background Information is lacking concerning in-hospital echocardiography analysis of COVID-19 infection in Brazil. We evaluated echocardiographic parameters to predict a composite endpoint mortality, pulmonary thromboembolism or acute renal failure. Methods A prospective full study consecutive patients hospitalized with COVID-19, single tertiary centre correlated findings biomarkers, clinical information, thoracic tomography, and Results One hundred eleven from March October 2020,...
