How to measure the LEFT VENTRICULAR DIAMETER: Echocardiography!
Рет қаралды 64,166
4 жыл бұрынHello guys! in this video we are measuring the left ventricular diameter (diastole and systole). This linear dimension is very useful to assess LV size and ejection fraction by Teich-Holz formula.
More information needs to be obtained by volumes if you find any abnormalities.

Great video, congrats! ❤️ By what method can we calculare EF using LV diameters? And how it function this method?
@the_echo_lady 3 жыл бұрын
You can calculate EF by Teichholz method (using just diameters) but this only can be used if you don't have any regional wall motion abnormality (you would underestimate)... In that case is more recommended to estimate EF by Simpsons method (based on volumes and I have a video in this channel about it)... But the most accurate one is 3D

Ok I'm confused. We were taught in school that the end diastole is when the mitral value is at it's widest opening. Please explain. Also I remember that the ekg can be used as a guide. Do you know at what place along the ekg indicates end diastole.
@the_echo_lady Жыл бұрын
There is a different ways of teaching, some structures that you can use as guide. End of diastole is at the beggining of the QRS. You can also use the LV when its bigger. Using the MV for me its tricky because the MV can be open for a while...

There is nothing to differentiate here... LBBB sometimes is the reason to have a paradoxical septal motion.

Hope you’re having a good day. What would be your suggestion for a left ventricle where the basil septum is bulging say at 1.5 cm but the rest of the septum is at 0.9cm . Where would you measure IVS ?
@the_echo_lady 2 жыл бұрын
Hello! Some people avoid the bulge and measure the septum a bit higher! And some people measure the bulge. Either way, you always have to report that the LV is normal size with a basal septal bulge seen.

Very good question. Avoid the bulge...measure higher from it. However you may show the thickness of it by using calipers as opposed to incorporating it into the measurement package.
@madmax6654 Жыл бұрын
@@glory1719 yes, and upon further thought, WE want to rule out LVOT obstruction. When that basel septum starts getting above 1.5 cm the LVOT VTI is even more important.

My left atrium is 40 mm. My cardiologist says it fine but internet tells me 39 mm is the max for women. Should I worry? My echocardiogram was 6 months after pregnancy. Can this be a cause?
@the_echo_lady Жыл бұрын
It's totally normal, with pregnancy the heart chambers get bigger to accommodate more blood... If your doctor told you if fine so just don't start to look up for things online 🤪

All the measurements needs to be corrected by BSA. Ask your cardiologist

How do we get the size after measuring at the end of diastole and systole
@the_echo_lady 2 жыл бұрын
Sorry I didn't understand this question. At end of diastole you get the diastolic size and at end of systole you get the systolic size.
