Identification of fetal atrial flutter by Doppler tissue imaging.
A26-year-old woman presented at 33 weeks of gestation with a singleton fetus with tachycardia. A complete fetal echocardiogram revealed a structurally normal fetal heart without signs of hydrops. The fetal heart rate was between 200 and 220 bpm. Evaluation of the rhythm with pulsed Doppler and M-mode scanning was not definitive. Fetal Doppler tissue imaging color M-mode scanning was performed b...
متن کاملEchocardiographic Assessment of Left Ventricle Torsion by Tissue Doppler and Velocity Vector Imaging
Introduction Left ventricular (LV) twist is believed to store potential energy and plays an important role in generating diastolic suction. Recent advances in echocardiography techniques have allowed quantification of LV twist. The aim of the present study was to compare LV twist and torsion in healthy human subjects determined by velocity vector imaging (VVI) and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) a...
متن کاملSuccessful treatment of fetal atrial flutter and congestive heart failure.
Fetal supraventricular tachycardia may cause congestive heart failure, hydrops fetalis, and intrauterine death. Tachycardia in a fetus of 34 weeks' gestation was diagnosed as atrial flutter by echocardiography, and was successfully treated by giving the mother digoxin.

deaths from infection (Table 3) be classified as inexplicable. Thus by the definition of Stanton and Oakley,3 among the 837 sudden postneonatal deaths in this series, 739 would be cot deaths of which only 62% were histologically unexplained. Fear of cot death haunts many young parents. Inflated numbers of cot deaths do not ease their anxiety. Misdiagnosis also hinders attempts to understand aet...
متن کاملEffect of preload on left atrial function: evaluated by tissue Doppler and strain imaging.
AIMS Both strain and strain rate (SR) measure the regional myocardial deformation and can assess phasic left atrial (LA) function. However, there is still a lack of evidence for their volume independency. In this study, strain and SR determined by tissue Doppler imaging were used to evaluate the effect of preload reduction in end-stage renal disease patients who were undergoing regular haemodia...
