2D Echo
• Structural and functional test of the heart• Uses Ultrasound• Sound waves are sent from the probe/ transducer by
piezoelectric crystals (£££) 1
• The waves travel back at various speeds producing an image
• US can’t travel through air therefore aqueous gel required to transmit signal
• Each signal sent as a plane and many lines of information are sent back, therefore a real time image is gained 1

Doppler
• Doppler- Uses moving structures i.e. blood flow the time
difference is known as doppler shift 1
- An equation is applied to the doppler shift (Fr-Ft) providing velocities of blood flow
- Blood flow velocity = c (Fr – FT)/2 FT (cos θ) 1
- Colour, PW and CW doppler- BART Blue- away from transducer. Red- towards

Indications in ITU
• LV function• Significant Valve abnormalities• Tamponade/ effusion• RV dilatation• Volume status- Thrombus, rupture, aneurysmal LV

Performing an Echo
Before you Start1. Position patient- USS does
not travel through bone and air
2. Monitor Cardiac cycle with ECG
3. Left or Right sided echo4. Patient ID 5. Aqueous Gel
