“…The clinical importance of echocardiography for the evaluation of patients with suspected acute cardiac emergencies and chest trauma is well documented [1][2][3] . Ideally, telemedicine as applied to cardiology from remote clinics or field environments would provide information to medical specialists quickly enough for diagnostic or management decisions to be made.…”

“…Sir, Echocardiography has become an essential diagnostic tool for the identification and management of many acute cardiac emergencies [1][2][3] . The advent of light (weighing about 11 kg), portable, low-cost echocardiography equipment opens the possibility of expanding care to remote locations.…”

“…Einerseits ist die Tamponade in der Lage, eine Blutung zu stoppen und wirkt sich so eher günstig auf die Prognose aus, andererseits ist sie jedoch eine der wesentlichen Ursachen für den Eintritt des kardiogenen Schocks mit Einflussstauung (Erhöhung des ZVD, sofern kein erheblicher Blutverlust mit Volumenmangel vorliegt), "low cardiac output" und einer Verminderung der Durchblu- Um eine Perikardtamponade mög-lichst umgehend zu diagnostizieren, sollte unmittelbar nach der Einlieferung der Verletzten in die Klinik eine orientierende Echokardiographie durchgeführt werden [13,24,32].Dabei schließt ein unauffäl-liger Befund eine Verletzung jedoch keinesfalls aus [8].…”
