“…The standard views of a 2D echocardiogram, as defined early on by the ASE, 32 are all used as part of a pediatric echocardiogram. In addition, there are imaging planes that are more commonly associated with a routine pediatric study: subxiphoid (subcostal), suprasternal notch, and right sternal border.…”

The aim of this study was to compare the results of the 44-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) data between haemodialysis (HDp) and CAPD patients and to investigate the relation of circadian rhythm in blood pressure (BP) with development of left ventricular hypertrophy. Twenty-two HDp (11 male, 11 female, mean age: 50 ± 17 years) and 24 CAPDp (11 male, 13 female, mean age: 47 ± 15 years) were included. Echocardiographic measurements and ABPM were performed in all study groups. ABPM of the first and second days were analysed separately and compared with CAPDp. Left ventricular hypertrophy was detected in 17 of the 22 HDp (77%) and 17 of the 24 CAPDp (71%). There was no significant differences between HD and CAPDp in respect to 44-h, daytime and night-time systolic and diastolic BP values. Although the course of BP in CAPDp was stable during the 44-h period, systolic and diastolic BP levels on the second day were significantly higher than those of on the first day in HDp (P Ͻ 0.001

“…The following measurements were taken in the standard positions as recommended by the American Society of Echocardiography:7,8 left atrial dimension, aortic root dimension, left ventricular end-systolic dimension, left ventricular end-diastolic dimension and end-diastolic volumes, velocities of E and A waves, isovolumic relaxation time and E-wave deceleration time, left ventricular ejection fraction, fractional shortening, and velocity of circumferential shortening.…”

BackgroundThe prognostic implications of P-wave dispersion in patients with a variety of cardiac disease conditions are increasingly being recognised. The relationship between P-wave dispersion and left ventricular function in sickle cell anaemia is unknown.ObjectiveThis study was aimed at evaluating the relationship between P-wave dispersion and left ventricular function in adult Nigerian sickle cell anaemia patients.MethodsBetween February and August 2007, a total of 62 sickle cell anaemia patients (aged 18–44 years; mean 28.27 ± 5.58) enrolled in the study. These were drawn from patients attending the adult sickle cell clinic of the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Ituku-Ozalla, Enugu. An equal number of age- and gender-matched normal subjects served as controls. All the participants were evaluated with electrocardiography and echocardiography. P-wave dispersion was defined as the difference between the maximum and minimum P-wave duration measured in a 12-lead electrocardiogram.ResultsP-wave duration and P-wave dispersion were significantly higher in patients than in controls. Significant correlation was demonstrated between P-wave dispersion and age in the patients (r = 0.387; p = 0.031). A comparison of subsets of sickle cell anaemia patients and controls with comparable haematocrit values (30–35%) showed significantly higher P-wave duration and P-wave dispersion in the patients than in the controls. The P-wave duration in patients and controls, respectively, was 111.10 ± 14.53 ms and 89.14 ± 16.45 ms (t = 3.141; p = 0.006). P-wave dispersion was 64.44 ± 15.86 ms in the patients and 36.43 ± 10.35 ms in the controls (t = 2.752; p = 0.013). Significant negative correlation was found between P-wave dispersion and left ventricular transmitral E/A ratio (r = –0.289; p = 0.023).ConclusionThese findings suggest that P-wave dispersion could be useful in the evaluation of sickle cell patients with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. Further prospective studies are recommended to evaluate its prognostic implication on the long-term disease outcome in sickle cell disease patients.
