Overview
There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with [disease name].
OR
Echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on an echocardiography/ultrasound suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
OR
There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with [disease name]. However, an echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of [disease name], which include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].
Echocardiography/Ultrasound
Echocardiography may be helpful in the diagnosis of pulseless electrical activity. It is mainly helpful in identifying the reversible causes of PEA(Pulseless electrical activity). Findings on an echocardiography suggestive of/diagnostic of pulseless electrical activity include:[1][2][3][4][5]
- Cardiac tamponade
- Tension pneumothorax
- Massive myocardial infarction
