Abstract

- Focused cardiac ultrasonography (FCU) is the use of ultrasonography as an adjunct to physical examination at the point of care. There are ample data supporting the fact that noncardiology trained users using small ultrasonography devices can assess left ventricular (LV) enlargement, LV systolic dysfunction, right ventricular (RV) enlargement, left atrial (LA) enlargement, LV hypertrophy, pericardial effusion, and right atrial (RA) pressure elevation more accurately than performing a physical examination. In addition, FCU-trained providers may have skills to perform ultrasonography imaging of body systems outside the heart to supplement their cardiac evaluation. FCU training, including didactic education, proctored imaging, independent imaging, and image interpretation, has been established by several specialties and medical schools. Cardiologists should embrace FCU in their facilities, as the clinical value to patient care is clear. Cardiologists have the responsibility to maintain excellence in the practice of echocardiography while enabling the use of ultrasonography by other medical professionals to augment their clinical assessments conventionally based on physical examination alone.
