Handheld Ultrasound and Detection of Valve and Other Structural Heart Disease

from Mayo Clinic Cardiovascular CME · host Mayo Clinic

Handheld Ultrasound and Detection of Valve and Other Structural Heart Disease Guest: Jared Bird, M.D. Host: Paul Friedman, M.D. Handheld ultrasound is rapidly changing cardiovascular structural heart disease assessment by allowing clinicians and researchers to detect valvular and structural heart disease earlier and more accurately. Advances in AI imaging guidance and interpretation further bridge the gap between physical exam and formal comprehensive echocardiography. It is important to realize how complimentary handheld ultrasound can be in the early detection of structural heat disease but does not replace diagnostic echocardiography. Topics Discussed: How does handheld ultrasound improve upon the traditional physical exam when it comes to identifying valvular or structural heart disease? What are the most common valve or structural abnormalities that clinicians can reliably detect using handheld ultrasound today? How are we using handheld ultrasound to screen patients for structural heart disease in a research setting? How do AI-ECG and handheld ultrasound intersect to provide optimal screening of asymptomatic patients with structural heart disease?
