Echocardiography Pocketcard Set
Comes in handy when normal values slip your mind. The binding makes it difficult to keep it open on the second page.
Great for Echo
A lot of tables and numbers to remind you what normal valves and heart measurements should be. Great pic of MV cusps, ASE wall segments, and waveforms.
For the weekend echocardiographer
I am an electrophysiologist in a practice that requires me to read echocardiograms. I went ten years in between fellowship and now without looking critically at a transthoracic echo. This 2 card set is incredibly helpful for interpreting simple, common findings for the practitioner who doesn't read enough echocardiograms to have memorized. Grade I - IV diastolic dysfunction parameters, degree of valvular insufficiency by pressure half time, expected gradients across prosthetic valves of different sizes (is a 20 mm mean gradient across a 19mm Bjork Shiley aortic valve normal? - maybe. I have no idea. Rather than digging through your partner's Feigenbaum or Otto - it's on the card!). This resource easily saves me a couple of hours a week.
Every Echo Tech should have one
This card is very valuable, it has everything you need when it comes to your measurements and numbers concerning Echos. It fits nicely in your pocket to carry around with you and it's a great learning tool for those in school or just graduating.
Extremely helpful.
There is alot of good information on these cards. They are very handy to keep at work.
