Intracardiac right-to-left shunts demonstrated by two-dimensional echocardiography after peripheral vein injection.
venous injections ofdextrose 5 per cent in water, for the detection and localisation of atrial and ventricular right-to-left shunts was evaluated in 70 adult patients. Based on their catheterisation data, 20 patients had a shunt at atrial level (group 1) and 14 patients a ventricular septal defect (group 2). Thirty-six patients without a shunt by oximetry served as controls. Echo contrast could...
متن کاملEchocardiographic detection of intracardiac right-to-left shunts following peripheral vein injections.
A contrast echocardiographic technique using peripheral vein injections for the detection and localization of intracardiac right-to-left shunting is described. Fifty children underwent cardiac catheterization and peripheral contrast echocardiographic studies. The site, degree, and direction of shunting were established at catheterization by oximetry, indicator dilution analysis and/or angiograp...
متن کاملDetection and exclusion of interatrial shunts by two-dimensional echocardiography and peripheral venous injection.
Two-dimensional echocardiography (2-D echo) was used with peripherally injected contrast material to detect interatrial shunts in 33 patients. Group 1 consisted of 11 patients having classic clinical findings of atrial septal defect. Group 2 consisted of 12 patients with problems requiring that atrial shunting be excluded. Group 3 (control group) consisted of 10 patients undergoing cardiac cath...
متن کاملOximetric detection of intracardiac left-to-right shunts.
To assess prevailing guidelines for the oximetric detection of intracardiac left-to-right shunts, we examined the variability of right heart oxygen saturation step-ups in 1121 catheterisations in children with aortic and pulmonary stenosis, who were studied as part of the joint study of the natural history of congenital heart defects. It is estimated that in the absence of intracardiac shunting...
متن کاملRadionuclide quantitation of right-to-left intracardiac shunts in children.
A simple, noninvasive method for measurement of right-to-left intracardiac shunts would enhance the management of patients with congenital heart disease. This study describes application of data processing techniques used previously in dye-indicator curves to data recorded during the initial transit of radioactive bolus through the central circulation. Radionuclide angiocardiograms were perform...
