Hello guys! in this video we are measuring the left ventricular diameter (diastole and systole). This linear dimension is very useful to assess LV size and ejection fraction by Teich-Holz formula.
More information needs to be obtained by volumes if you find any abnormalities.

You measured to the papillary muscles not to the posterior wall !

I think I excluded it but thank you for your feedback

Ok I'm confused. We were taught in school that the end diastole is when the mitral value is at it's widest opening. Please explain. Also I remember that the ekg can be used as a guide. Do you know at what place along the ekg indicates end diastole.

@the_echo_lady Год назад

There is a different ways of teaching, some structures that you can use as guide. End of diastole is at the beggining of the QRS. You can also use the LV when its bigger. Using the MV for me its tricky because the MV can be open for a while...

My left atrium is 40 mm. My cardiologist says it fine but internet tells me 39 mm is the max for women. Should I worry? My echocardiogram was 6 months after pregnancy. Can this be a cause?

@the_echo_lady Год назад

It's totally normal, with pregnancy the heart chambers get bigger to accommodate more blood... If your doctor told you if fine so just don't start to look up for things online 🤪

Can you plz tell me that if someone has lvidd 39.4 mm and lvids 24.4mm is it normal? Plz reply

@the_echo_lady 2 года назад

Hello, those look like normal diameters ...

@ozgesahin9733 4 года назад

we like your explanations and videos;) all of them high quality and very well measurements.. Waiting for new videos.. For example, sistolic and diastolic disfunctions;)

Plz explain septum measurement sometimes there are papillary muscles

@the_echo_lady Год назад

There is nothing to differentiate here... LBBB sometimes is the reason to have a paradoxical septal motion.

My echocardiogram was 2 month old and has lvdd is 53.3 my age is 27 year is it normal?

@the_echo_lady Год назад

All the measurements needs to be corrected by BSA. Ask your cardiologist

@cristinadobrin3844 3 года назад

Great video, congrats! ❤️ By what method can we calculare EF using LV diameters? And how it function this method?

@the_echo_lady 3 года назад

You can calculate EF by Teichholz method (using just diameters) but this only can be used if you don't have any regional wall motion abnormality (you would underestimate)... In that case is more recommended to estimate EF by Simpsons method (based on volumes and I have a video in this channel about it)... But the most accurate one is 3D

Hope you’re having a good day. What would be your suggestion for a left ventricle where the basil septum is bulging say at 1.5 cm but the rest of the septum is at 0.9cm . Where would you measure IVS ?

@the_echo_lady 2 года назад

Hello! Some people avoid the bulge and measure the septum a bit higher! And some people measure the bulge. Either way, you always have to report that the LV is normal size with a basal septal bulge seen.

@madmax6654 2 года назад

@@the_echo_lady thank you so much for your reply 🙏.

@glory1719 Год назад

Very good question. Avoid the bulge...measure higher from it. However you may show the thickness of it by using calipers as opposed to incorporating it into the measurement package.

@madmax6654 Год назад

@@glory1719 yes, and upon further thought, WE want to rule out LVOT obstruction. When that basel septum starts getting above 1.5 cm the LVOT VTI is even more important.

@@madmax6654 yes good point. I'm happy that we are all here with "The Echo lady"
