摘要

背景:尽管传统的心脏体检(PE)存在固有的局限性,但尚未被更准确的方法所取代。方法:我们假设,与资深心脏病学家和心脏病学研究员进行的PE相比,一名医科学生在接受过简短的PHU培训(两个学时)后,能更好地识别异常表现,包括明显的瓣膜疾病、心包积液和左室功能降低。经胸超声心动图(TTE)作为“金标准”。结果:77例患者行TTE手术,其中64例出现异常。PE鉴别出34例异常患者,而PHU鉴别出52例(p结论:由一名医科学生使用PHU进行心脏评估,其准确性与由心脏专家或心脏病学研究员进行的PE相似。研究课题应该在未来的研究中得到验证,更多的医学生接受过心脏超声的简单训练。

Cardiac assessment accuracy by students using palm-held ultrasound compared to physical examination by skilled cardiologists: a pilot study with a single medical student.

Background: Despite the inherent limitations of the traditional cardiac physical examination (PE), it has not yet been replaced by a more accurate method.

Methods: We hypothesized that a single medical student, following a brief training (two academic hours) with the PHU, will better identify abnormal findings including significant valvular diseases, pericardial effusion and reduced LV function, as compared to PE performed by senior cardiologists and cardiology fellows. Transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) served as a 'gold standard'.

Results: Seventy-seven patients underwent TTE, of them 64 had an abnormal finding. PE identified 34 patients with an abnormal finding compared to 52 identified by PHU (p < 0.05). Ejection fraction (EF) below 50% was found in 35 patients on TTE, compared to only 15 and 6 patients by PE and PHU, respectively (p < 0.05). There was no difference in valvular dysfunction diagnosis detected by PE and medical students using PHU. The overall accuracy of PHU compared to TTE was 87%, with a specificity of 94% and sensitivity of 64% (the low sensitivity was driven mainly by EF assessment), whereas the accuracy of PE was 91%, specificity 91% and sensitivity 38% (again driven by poor EF assessment).

Conclusions: Cardiac evaluation using PHU by a single medical student was able to demonstrate similar accuracy as PE done by cardiac specialists or cardiology fellows. The study topic should be validated in future studies with more medical students with a very brief training of cardiac ultrasound.

期刊介绍: Cardiovascular Ultrasound is an online journal, publishing peer-reviewed: original research; authoritative reviews; case reports on challenging and/or unusual diagnostic aspects; and expert opinions on new techniques and technologies. We are particularly interested in articles that include relevant images or video files, which provide an additional dimension to published articles and enhance understanding. As an open access journal, Cardiovascular Ultrasound ensures high visibility for authors in addition to providing an up-to-date and freely available resource for the community. The journal welcomes discussion, and provides a forum for publishing opinion and debate ranging from biology to engineering to clinical echocardiography, with both speed and versatility.
