Six Echos for "Transesophageal Echocardiographic Diagnosis of Carbon Dioxide Embolism During Minimally Invasive Saphenous Vein Harvesting and Treatment With Inhaled Epoprostenol"
Files in this Data Supplement:
VIDEO-1
-
Four-chamber transesophageal echocardiographic view of the right atrium (RA), right ventricle (RV), left atrium (LA) and left ventricle (LV) obtained at the beginning of the procedure.
VIDEO-2
-
Dense scattered echocardiographic signals consistent with gas embolism are seen in the inferior vena cava (IVC). The hepatic veins (HV) are seen.
VIDEO-3
-
Four-chamber transesophageal echocardiographic view of the right atrium (RA), right ventricle (RV), left atrium (LA) and left ventricle (LV) obtained during the carbon dioxide embolism present in the RA and RV. Dilatation of the RA is seen.
VIDEO-4
-
Basal short axis view of the right atrium (RA), right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT), and pulmonary artery (PA). The carbon dioxide embolism is seen in all right sided structures (AV: aortic valve, LA: left atrium).
VIDEO-5
-
Echocardiographic 2D exam obtained from a four-chamber view. A dilated right ventricle (RV) compressing the left ventricle (LV) through the interventricular septum is seen (RA: right atrium, LA: left atrium).
VIDEO-6
-
Four-chamber transesophageal echocardiographic view of the right atrium (RA), right ventricle (RV), left atrium (LA) and left ventricle (LV) obtained before surgical closure. Normal right ventricular function is seen.
