Overview

Echocardiography and ultrasounds are useful in diagnosing organic causes of failure to thrive.

Echocardiography/Ultrasound

  • Echocardiography and ultrasounds are useful in diagnosing organic causes of failure to thrive. Listing down each organic cause is beyond the scope of this microchapter.
  • Listing down each organic cause is beyond the scope of this microchapter.
  • Echocardiocardiogrpahs may be useful in diagnosing congenital heart disease or cardiac malignancies
  • Ultrasounds are useful in diagnosing obstructions, gastrointestinal malignancies or inflammatory conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease.
    • Low muscle volume,hepatomegaly, increased hepatic echogenicity (as a sign of hepatosteatosis),anechoic intraperitoneal fluid (ascites) are some ultrasound findings in patients with failure to thrive.
  • An example of an organic cause diagnosed by an echocardiography is :
  • Ventricular Septal Defect
