Acute Heart Failure and Echocardiography: A Synopsis

Jacob Kotlea

Images of your heart are provided by a sonogram, which uses sound waves. Your doctor can see your heart beating and pumping blood with this routine check. A sonogram's images will be used by your doctor to identify heart conditions. You will have one of a number of different types of echocardiograms, depending on the information your doctor needs. There are few, if any, risks associated with any kind of sonogram. You will need a small amount of an enhancing agent injected through an intravenous (IV) line if your lungs or ribs block the read. The usually-safe and well-tolerated enhancing agent can make your heart's structures appear more clearly on a monitor. After hitting blood cells moving through your heart and blood vessels, sound waves change pitch. These changes, which are Doppler signals, will make it easier for your doctor to see how fast and in which direction your heart's blood flows. Transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiograms typically use Christian Johann Doppler techniques. Christian Johann Doppler techniques can also detect issues with blood flow and pressure in the heart's arteries that traditional ultrasound cannot.
