Echocardiographic Evaluation in Neonates Suspected to Congenital Heart Disease in NICU
Background and Objective: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most form of cardiovascular disease in children. CHD have different presentations, from defects that progress asymptomatically to those with significant symptoms and high mortality. This study was performed to highlight the importance of signs and symptoms to diagnosis of CHD neonates. Materials & Methods: This descriptive analyt...

Twenty-nine patients with a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in isolation (n = 17) or in combination with other lesions (n = 12) underwent simultaneous hemodynamic assessment and evaluation of PDA flow velocity by the Doppler method. The accuracy with which Doppler velocity across the PDA predicted pulmonary arterial pressure and the influence of PDA size and shape on the Doppler velocity-pressur...

With the increasing popularity of the Jatene procedure for the treatment of common or D-transposition of the great arteries (D-TGA), the preoperative definition of coronary artery anatomy in D-TGA has assumed great importance. Consequently, the reliability of two-dimensional echocardiography for determining the coronary artery anatomy was studied in 32 infants with D-TGA. Surgical observation o...

Two-dimensional echocardiographic features were correlated with surgical findings in 25 patients with Ebstein's anomaly (age 7 days to 71 years). There was excellent agreement between echocardiographic and surgical findings. Echocardiographic observations of anterior leaflet tethering and restriction of motion, as well as small functional right ventricle, were the strongest noninvasively obtain...

We used pulsed Doppler ultrasound to determine the flow dynamics of the aorta and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in 21 infants (ages 1 to 16 days) with PDA and aortic atresia (n = 15) or aortic stenosis (n = 6). The flow within the PDA was recorded in 19, and was right-to-left during systole in all. There was a diastolic left-to-right PDA shunt in 11 patients with aortic atresia and in three wi...
