Materials and Methods: This study was conducted with cardiac patients admitted to a hospital emergency department in Tehran, Iran. A total of 156 patient cases were reviewed. A group of trained EM residents evaluated the ejection fraction (EF) of these patients utilizing three different methods: Simpson’s method (N = 50), E-Point Septal Separation (EPSS, N = 56), and a visual technique (N = 50). A final assessment was made for all patients by a cardiologist. Results: In 69.3% of these patient cases, there was a significant correlation between the EM residents’ report and the cardiologists, with Cohen’s Kappa coefficient of .746 (P < .001). The Kappa coefficient for the visual technique, Simpson’s method, and EPSS was .697, .467, and .487, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values of EF measurements, provided by the EM residents, were 0.89%, 64.2%, 81.6%, and 76.5% compared with the cardiologist, respectively. Conclusion: This description study was done to determine the agreement of echocardiographic measurement of EF, assessed by trained EM residents, compared with a cardiologist’s review. In this case, the results demonstrated moderate to good agreement.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":"15 1","pages":"569 - 574"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72546615","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and Methods: The study cohort consisted of 103 patients referred for computed tomographic angiography (CTA) for coronary artery assessment. None of the patients had a gallbladder, biliary, or pancreatic disease or surgery history. The Agatston score determined the rates of arterial calcification. The diameter of the CBD was measured for a sonogram. Results: There was a statistically significant relatively strong correlation between calcium score and CBD diameter (r = 0.44, P = .001), independent of baseline variables, such as demographics and cardiovascular risk profiles. In the multivariable regression model, advanced age (beta = 0.825, P = .005), history of hypertension (beta = 0.591, P = .034), and history of coronary stenting (beta = 1.339, P = .001) were shown to be the main determinants of CBD dilatation. Conclusion: A statistically significant correlation existed between the CBD diameter and calcium score, within the coronary arteries and this could represent a shared pathophysiology between CBD dilatation and the severity of coronary atherosclerosis.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":"14 1","pages":"561 - 567"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80640122","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The clinical diagnosis of hemobilia is often challenging, as symptoms are quite unspecific and often display a late onset. In such cases, sonography of the gallbladder can play a crucial role in the early detection of hemobilia. A case report is provided of a 72-year-old man who underwent a sonography-guided percutaneous biopsy of a 22-mm focal lesion, within the eighth segment of the liver. In this patient, asymptomatic active hemobilia was promptly identified through contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) which was performed immediately after the invasive procedure. Crucially, this postprocedural complication may have gone undiagnosed without an early postprocedure grayscale visual analysis and CEUS evaluation, since the patient was completely asymptomatic. In conclusion, a grayscale sonogram of the gallbladder is suggested and should be considered before and immediately after percutaneous invasive procedures of the liver. In the instances where suspicion of hemobilia arises, CEUS can be used to assess the presence of active bleeding. Implementing this type of imaging protocol may possibly reveal a higher frequency of hemobilia than is commonly reported.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":"107 1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89742885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and Methods: This cohort study was conducted on 164 neonates with RDS with a gestational age of over 28 weeks. Transthoracic sonography was performed in all patients in the infant isolet immediately after admission and stabilization of the infant and during the first 6 hours before surfactant treatment. Immediately after the sonogram, the neonates underwent an anterior–posterior view chest radiograph, before and after surfactant treatment. Results: In comparison with clinical manifestations and radiographic findings as the references, the sensitivity and specificity of each of the LUS-related parameters for detecting RDS were as follows: Faded A-lines (95.4% and 76.7%), abnormal B-lines (91.7% and 71.6%), the presence of consolidation (90.9% and 88.3%), the presence of pleural effusion (95% and 86.7%), and alveolar–interstitial syndrome (AIS) (98% and 96%). Conclusion: LUS findings were valuable in assessing and grading the severity of neonatal RDS alongside clinical evaluation. LUS may assist in selecting infants for surfactant therapy and monitoring treatment response.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":"11 1","pages":"590 - 598"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84252791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It involves the accumulation of blood and air in the pleural cavity, which can cause hypovolemic shock if left untreated. Lung sonography is a noninvasive, nonionizing radiation imaging technique, and easily accessible diagnostic tool that can be performed at the bedside in critically ill patients, for the diagnosis of hemopneumothorax. A case is reported of a 60-year-old female with a medical history of leukemia who developed hypovolemic shock due to right hemothorax caused by a perforation of the superior vena cava by a central venous catheter. The patient underwent emergency surgery and her condition improved, but later presented with symptoms of hemopneumothorax, which was diagnosed using lung sonography. Emergency placement of a pleural drainage tube was performed, but unfortunately, the patient’s condition deteriorated, and she received end-of-life care. Prompt diagnosis and management of hemopneumothorax are essential to prevent life-threatening complications, and lung sonography is a valuable diagnostic tool, in the diagnosis of critically ill patients.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":"95 1","pages":"616 - 619"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75378496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results: The placenta accreta spectrum has an unclear etiology, with cesarean delivery and placenta previa being the most implicated factors. Conclusion: There is a growing global consensus that the two main risk factors for placenta accreta are placenta previa and prior cesarean delivery. Up-to-date, grayscale sonography combined with Doppler interrogation is thought to be the best first-line assistance, for the identification of abnormal placental invasion. Cesarean hysterectomy, with placenta left in situ, is the classical surgical treatment.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":"34 1","pages":"600 - 614"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81338438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
