[Detection of right-to-left shunts by one- and twodimensional contrast echocardiography (author's transl)]. 1978

K D Müller, and I Steinbauer-Rosenthal, and F Glet

33 children with different congenital cardiac malformations--aged one day to twelve and a half years--were investigated by peripheral and central, 1- and 2 dimensional contrast echocardiography. 11 patients were studied during routinely performed cardiac catheterization and 23 in the early postoperative period (one patient pre- and postoperatively.) Contrast echocardiography peripherally performed represents a very sensitive diagnostic method to detect right-to-left shunting at atrial and/or ventricular levels. Quantification of shunts seems to be possible, if standardization can be achieved. Contrast echocardiography centrally performed can detect right-to-left shunts in residual postoperative defects, delineate and identify intra- and extracardiac structures, assess "low-output" states and should be applied in complex cardia malformations.

D005260 Female Females
D006343 Heart Septal Defects Abnormalities in any part of the HEART SEPTUM resulting in abnormal communication between the left and the right chambers of the heart. The abnormal blood flow inside the heart may be caused by defects in the ATRIAL SEPTUM, the VENTRICULAR SEPTUM, or both.

D006344 Heart Septal Defects, Atrial Developmental abnormalities in any portion of the ATRIAL SEPTUM resulting in abnormal communications between the two upper chambers of the heart. Classification of atrial septal defects is based on location of the communication and types of incomplete fusion of atrial septa with the ENDOCARDIAL CUSHIONS in the fetal heart. They include ostium primum, ostium secundum, sinus venosus, and coronary sinus defects.

D006345 Heart Septal Defects, Ventricular Developmental abnormalities in any portion of the VENTRICULAR SEPTUM resulting in abnormal communications between the two lower chambers of the heart. Classification of ventricular septal defects is based on location of the communication, such as perimembranous, inlet, outlet (infundibular), central muscular, marginal muscular, or apical muscular defect.
