Clinical comparison of a handheld cardiac ultrasound device for the assessment of left ventricular function

Abstract: Purpose: Recently developed handheld ultrasound devices (HHUD) represent a promising method to evaluate the cardiovascular abnormalities at the point of care. However, this technology has not been rigorously evaluated. The aim of this study was to explore the correlation and the agreement between the LVEF (Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction) visually assessed by a moderately experienced sonographer using an HHUD compared to the routine LVEF assessment performed at the Echocardiography Laboratory. Methods: This was a prospective single center study which enrolled 120 adult inpatients and outpatients referred for a comprehensive Echocardiography (EC). Results: The mean age of the patients was 69.9?±?12.5 years. There were 47 females (39.2%). The R-squared was r 0.94 (p?
