Guidelines for Performing a Comprehensive Pediatric Transthoracic Echocardiogram: Recommendations From the American Society of Echocardiography.
Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography 2024 Februrary
Echocardiography is a fundamental component of pediatric cardiology, and appropriate indications have been established for its use in the setting of suspected, congenital, or acquired heart disease in children. Since the publication of guidelines for pediatric transthoracic echocardiography in 2006 and 2010, advances in knowledge and technology have expanded the scope of practice beyond the use of traditional modalities such as two-dimensional, M-mode, and Doppler echocardiography to evaluate the cardiac segmental structures and their function. Adjunct modalities such as contrast, three-dimensional, and speckle-tracking echocardiography are now used routinely at many pediatric centers. Guidelines and recommendations for the use of traditional and newer adjunct modalities in children are described in detail in this document. In addition, suggested protocols related to standard operations, infection control, sedation, and quality assurance and improvement are included to provide an organizational structure for centers performing pediatric transthoracic echocardiograms.
