It is not necessary to understand coronary artery correlation to wall segments on echocardiography in order to interpret studies accurately.

During intracardiac studies, the ICE catheter is advanced from the inferior vena cava with the control mechanism in a free or neutral position. The catheter is then placed in the mid LA.

In which clinical situation would the patient still have the TEE performed?

Color on the spectral image precludes post-processing.  Therefore, it is suggested to use only gray-scale for spectral imaging.

The LifeVest is used for:

During a TEE a person’s gag reflex is diminished and should remain NPO for 30 minutes after the study.

 Complications for TEE include all except:

All of the following are major risk factors for ischemic heart disease except:
