The value of bedside ultrasound
• Echocardiography
• Thoracic ultrasound
• Vascular access
• Neural blockade

Characteristics of „Point of Care
Ultrasound‟
• Exam is for a well-defined purpose
linked to improving patient outcomes
• Exam is focused and goal-directed
• Exam findings are easily recognizable
• The exam is easily learned
• Exam is quickly performed
• Exam is performed at the patient‟s
bedside

From 2014 all trainees must demonstrate
competency in basic echocardiography.
In order for the Trainee to fulfil this requirement,
satisfactory completion of the following is required:
(a) Attend an accredited course in basic echocardiography
(b) Perform, document and appropriately interpret 30 basic
studies.
(c) Perform at a satisfactory level in a „hot-case‟ (live) exam
(d) Complete a short on-line MCQ exam (CICM website)

Benefits of TTE
• Immediately available, non invasive
• Best modality for:
– LV function
– Right heart evaluation
– Effusions and tamponade
– Evaluation of aortic stenosis

Benefits of TOE
• Modality of choice for
– Endocarditis
– Evaluation of septal defects and shunts
– Ascending and descending aorta
– Intracardiac masses and thrombi esp LAA
• Also indicated if poor TTE windows due to
surgery, dressings, body habitus etc.

How ICU studies differ from the

underway • Often a specific question “Is there a cardiac
component to this patient‟s instability” • Repeated studies for monitoring • 24 hours a day requirement

All intensivists should be able to….
do a basic echo to answer the following
questions:
1. Is the heart working?
2. Is it really full or really empty?
3. Is there an acute severe valve lesion?
4. Is there a tamponade?
These are
not subtle
findings!!

„Level two‟ examination
• Let the experts worry about:
– Degrees of diastolic dysfunction
– Tissue doppler imaging
– Quantifying subtler valve lesions and
pressure gradients
– Little ASDs and PFOs and other shunts
– Congenital abnormalities
![Page 18: Haemodynamic monitoring by - MSICmsic.org.my/sfnag402ndfbqzxn33084mn90a78aas0s9g/asmic2017/Ian Seppelt... · Pitfalls of haemodynamic monitoring with echocardiography 1.

Focussed Assessment
• Level 1 training for all intensivists
• A FOCUSSED examination to answer
specific questions
– Not a comprehensive examination, and should
not be thought of as such
– Analagous to FAST in trauma

The RACE examination
• Focussed 2D examination
– Cardiac windows
– Basic lung ultrasound
– Vena cava assessment
• Doppler examination de-emphasized
• Course 1 – 2 days with extensive hands
on experience

• Focussed RACE course during orientation
period
• All RACE studies must be documented
– Standard pro-forma
• Consultant review of images off-line

1. Conservatism
• “You can‟t teach an old dog new tricks”
• “What I do now works for me”
• Practicalities – teaching a whole department
2. Turf wars with cardiology or radiology
3. Where do we get training?
4. Maintenance of skills
5. Amateurs „dabbling‟ - making mistakes
So why won‟t we all embrace
ultrasound?

Pitfalls of Level 1 Exams
• Over-interpreting findings
– Statements about preload and filling based
just on IVC collapse in ventilated (or non-
ventilated) patients
– RV function / ventricular interrelationships
• Missing important things
– Dyamic LVOT obstruction
• Not understanding one‟s limitations
A focused examination

sufficient to guide therapy

“It is better to be roughly right than precisely wrong.”
Mervyn King, the former governor of Bank of England
Does the patient have adequate cardiac output?

PLR induced changes in Ao VTI
Lamia et at Intens Care Med 2007
PLR induced increase in aortic VTI of 12.5% or more
predicted an increase in SV of 15% or more after volume
expansion with a sensitivity of 77% and a specificity of 100%

Pitfalls of haemodynamic
monitoring with echocardiography
1. Over-interpreting difficult imaging
– Atrial fibrillation
– Poor view of LVOT for CO determination
– IVC collapsibility
2. Intermittent views in a dynamic, rapidly
changing situation
– So keep the machine at the bedside, have
another look
3. Fluid responsiveness does not (necessarily)
mean give more fluid
