Evaluation of transesophageal echocardiography in detecting cardiac sources of emboli in ischemic stroke patients
Background: Embolus is one of the causes of ischemic stroke that can be due to cardiac sources such as valvular heart diseases and atrial fibrillation and atheroma of the aorta. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is superior in identifying potential cardiac sources of emboli. Due to insufficient data on TEE findings in ischemic stroke in Iran, the present study was done to evaluate TEE in...
متن کاملEmergency Physician-performed Transesophageal Echocardiography in Simulated Cardiac Arrest
INTRODUCTION Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is a well-established method of evaluating cardiac pathology. It has many advantages over transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), including the ability to image the heart during active cardiopulmonary resuscitation. This prospective simulation study aims to evaluate the ability of emergency medicine (EM) residents to learn TEE image acquisition ...
متن کاملSystemic thrombus formation in cardiac arrest: manifestation of cardiac arrest-related hypercoagulability visualized by transesophageal echocardiography.
997 April 2014 A 63-YR-OLD man with ischemic cardiomyopathy presented for pacemaker laser lead extraction with general anesthesia. After successful lead removal, he became acutely hypotensive. Immediate transe sophageal echocardiography (TEE) revealed a large peri cardial effusion, and despite pericardiocentesis and phar macologic intervention, the patient suffered cardiac arrest. After a br...
متن کاملTransesophageal Echocardiography in Patients with Cerebral Ischemia
INTRODUCTION: Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is superior to Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in detection of atrial septal defects and aneurysm, aortic atheroma, left atrial thrombus and mitral valve abnormalities. TEE is indicated in young adults with cryptogenic ischemic stroke who are suspected of having cardioembolic mechanism despite non-diagnostic
متن کاملThe relative roles of transthoracic compared with transesophageal echocardiography in children with suspected infective endocarditis.
OBJECTIVES The study evaluated the additional benefit of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) versus transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in pediatric cases with suspected bacterial endocarditis. BACKGROUND In adult patients, TTE has a lower sensitivity and specificity than TEE for the detection of vegetations or aortic root abscess formation. Few data are available about the relative benef...
