Some of the other useful parameters are mitral E velocity deceleration time, changes in mitral inflow with Valsalva maneuver, mitral L velocity, isovolumic relaxation time, left atrial maximum volume index, pulmonary vein systolic/diastolic velocity ratio, color M-mode Vp and E/Vp ratio. J Cardiovasc Ultrasound. 2009 Sep;17(3):86-95.
Smith comment: This patient did not have a bedside ultrasound. Had one been done, it would have shown a feature that is apparent on this ultrasound (however, this patient's LV function would not be as good as in this clip): This is recorded with the LV on the right. In fact, bedside ultrasound might even find severe aortic stenosis.
Rupture can be either free wall rupture (causing tamonade) or septal rupture, causing ventricular septal defect with left to right flow and resulting pulmonary edema and shock. If detected early by ultrasound, the patient can be saved. Apr 28, 2009. 3) Oliva et al. (3) J Am Coll Cardiol 53(17):1503-9.

My bedside ultrasound was of insufficient quality, but showed somewhat reduced overall EF, distended IVC without respiratory variation, no pericardial effusion, and diffuse bilateral B lines. == What do you think of her ECG? CXR confirmed bilateral pulmonary edema and bilateral small effusions. J Electrocardiol, 42 (2009), pp.
