What about a little bit of theory before beginning simulation? >>>

 

• Run Echocardiography Online Simulator

• From the List <<Patients>> Choose Patient 1 (User can Choose other patients as well).
• From the List <<Positions>> Choose Subcostal IVC (Subcostal View, Long axis of Inferior Vena Cava). or find the same position with 3D Transducer. We need this position for pressure assessment in Right atrium.
• Click the button <<Deep Inhale>>. Examine IVC reaction on deep inhale.
• Click Button <<Calculations>> Click Tab <<PA P>>. In this case IVC after deep inhale totally collapsed. Click Radio Button <<Collapse>>. Simulator will calculate RA pressure.
• From the List <<Positions>> Choose Parasternal Short Ao (Left Parasternal View at the level of Ao valve) or Parasternal Sort PA (Left Parasternal View at the level of Pulmonary Artery) or find the same position with 3D Transducer.
• Click the button <<PW>> and place Control Volume of Pulse Wave Doppler in RVOT.
• In the Tab Tab <<PA P>> click the radio Button <<PG PA>>
• Click the button <<Curve>> trace around PA regurgitation jet to measure PG max of Pulmonary Artery regurgitation.
• Click the button <<Enter>>
