WHEN TO SUSPECT IN 2D ECHO
• RIGHT VENTRICULAR DILATIONABNORMAL MOTION OF IVS- brisk anterior movement in early systole or flattened movement throughout systole• ? IAS DROP OUT IN APICAL 4C VIEW• RELATIVE ATRIAL INDEX
2D ECHO
RA RV VOLUME OVERLOAD
SEPTAL FLATTENING IN DIASTOLE
RELATIVE ATRIAL INDEX
• Standard apical 4C views- right atrial area divided by left atrial area
• ROC curve analysis - cutoff value of >0.92 predicted patients with ASDs v/s matched controls with 99.1% sensitivity and 90.5% specificity. After closure, significant atrial remodeling occurred immediately, with a reduction in the mean RAI at day 1 to 0.93 ± 0.16 (P < .0001) and complete normalization at early follow-up to 0.81 ± 0.12.

SUB COSTAL 4C VIEW
• To go for the subcostal 4C – Keeps the atrial septum perpendicular to the ultrasound beam
• Distinguishes OS , OP & SV ASDs• SV ASD are consistently visualised in the
SUBCOSTAL 4C VIEW• Measurements of the septum can be taken• Anomalous drainage of pulmonary veins • Atrial septal aneurysm
TTE -views for ASD
• PSAX-IAS separates Rt &Lt atrium and runs posteriorly from NCC of aortic valve. Not seen in entirety as a result of drop out artefact
• APICAL 4C- Posterior aspect of Interatrial septum is clearly delineated in this view but drop out artefact is seen in region of fossa ovalis.
• Pulmonary venous drainage- 3 veins draining to LA• APICAL 5C VIEW- Anterior aspect of interatrial
septum
PSAX VIEW IAS AGAINST NCC OF AORTA
APICAL 4C VIEW SHOWING THE IAS AND 3 VEINS DRAINING TO LA, RT LOWER PULMONARY VEIN IS USUALLY NOT SEEN
• SUB COSTAL 4C VIEW- Useful in patients with COPD and ventilated patients
Viewed with breath held in inspiration- index marker in 3o` clock position.
No IAS drop outsSUB COSTAL SHORT AXIS- Index marker at 12o`clock
position and sweeping the transducer from midline to Rt side of patient
SUBCOSTAL 4C VIEW
SUB COSTAL SHORT AXIS VIEWALSO SHOWS IVC DRAINING TO RA AND EUSTACHIAN VALVE
Other important views
• To visualise SVC- Suprasternal short axis –index marker in 4 o`clock position
• L-SVC is seen from lt supraclvicular fossa or suprasternal short axis
• Suprasternal short axis to visualise the the pulmonary veins draining into left atrium
• Cleft mitral valve in AVCD in 12o`clock position in PSAX
SUPRASTERNAL SHORT AXIS
`Crab view` showing absent Rt upper and Rt lower pulmonary vein
En face view in 2D
• First the apical 4c view was taken. The image index marker was at approximately kept at 1 o'clock. Keeping the atrial septum and ASD in the region of interest, the transducer was rotated counterclockwise approximately 45° to 60°

• Shows the direction of the shunt • Caveat- FP results due to improper gain and
caval flow streaming near septum can be misdiagnosed as ASD.
• PULSED DOPPLER- demonstrates the flow from L to R in mid systole to mid diastole with second phase in atrial systole. Some R to L shunting occurs in early systole

CONTRAST ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY
• APICAL 4C VIEW IS USED• AGITATED SALINE USED- 5ml in each 10ml
syringe, 0.5ml of air taken in the syringe and agitated to create microbubbles.
ARROW SHOWS NEGATIVE CONTRAST EFFECTDIRECT EVIDENCE OF SHUNT- NON CONTRAST BLOOD IN RA
Extent of shunting tend to focus on numbers of bubbles seen in a single still frame in the left atrium. Shunt grading incorporates : Grade 1:5 bubbles; Grade 2: 5 to 25 bubbles; Grade 3:25 bubbles; Grade 4: Opacification of chamber

DEVICE SELECTION
TEE IMAGES OF ASD DEVICE CLOSURE
3D ECHO
• Matrix transducers – pyramid shaped volumes• Full volume 3D dataset in 4-7 cardiac cycles• Ideal window is the mid esophageal basal long
axis (bicaval view)• Subcostal 4c view- enface septum• Low parasternal 4c view case of suboptimal
windows• 3D tee overcomes 3D TTE if suboptimal
windows
• Real-time 3D imaging demonstrates the changing shape of the ASD during a cardiac cycle, with maximum size in diastole
• As we take the Bicaval view structures – we first remove the right atrial free wall .
• Images are taken with suspended respiration and ECG gating with optimal gain settings
• Low gain – drop outs and high gain – blurring of structural details

DEVICE DISLODGEMENT AND ATTEMPETED SNARING
The correlations between the ASD maximal diameter by RT-3DE and operation or balloon sizing were excellent (r > 0.95). All surrounding rims of the atrial septum could be assessed on 3D
reconstruction; except for the aortic rim, a cross-sectional reconstruction was created mimicking the transesophageal echocardiographic cross section (r > 0.92)
