Abstract:
The term congenital heart disease encompasses a vast array of lesions that present unique anesthetic challenges. Making up close to 10% of all congenital heart disease, atrial septal defects are some of the more commonly encountered congenital lesions. Atrial chambers in the heart are separated by a septum that forms during embryological development. When the septum does not develop normally, blood communicates between the right and left atria. This alteration in flow has significant effects on both cardiac and pulmonary anatomy and physiology. Cardiothoracic surgery used to be the only way to close defects that did not spontaneously close. Transcatheeter device closure of atrial septal defects in the cardiac catheterization lab has become increasingly common and offers significant advantages over open heart surgery. This chapter highlights the anatomic and physiologic considerations of the different types of atrial septal defects and discusses the details of transcatheter closure including indications, timing, and risks.

Abstract:
Echocardiography has a fundamental role in patients with adult congenital heart disease. This chapter identifies the role of echocardiography in atrial septal defects, ventricular septal defects, atrioventricular septal defects, patent ductus arteriosus, and persistent left superior vena cava. For each condition, the role of transthoracic and transoesophagael echocardiogram are shown alongside examples of main types and features and haemodynamic effect. Echocardiographic findings of LV outflow tract obstruction, supravalvular aortic stenosis, aortic stenosis, and aortic coarction are covered, as well as an examination of complex congenital lesions, including the tetralogy of Fallot and Ebstein’s anomaly of the tricuspid valve.

Abstract:
Murmurs arise from turbulent flow in the heart or great vessels. This may occur because of a structural abnormality of the heart, or increased flow across normal cardiac structures (e.g. innocent flow murmur in pregnancy; the tricuspid flow murmur which may be heard in atrial septal defects with a large left-to-right shunt). Turbulence occurs when laminar blood flow is disrupted. Murmurs are classified by their timing in relation to the cardiac cycle as systolic, diastolic, or continuous. Systolic murmurs are heard in up to 50% of adults. More than 90% of young adults and around 50% of older adults with a systolic murmur have a structurally normal heart on echocardiography (i.e. an innocent murmur). Diastolic or continuous murmurs always indicate structural disease. Anaemia, pregnancy, and thyrotoxicosis may result in a high-output state with a functional (flow) murmur. This chapter describes the clinical approach to the patient with a murmur.

Abstract:
Congenital heart disease is the most common congenital abnormality, affecting 0.8% of births. There have been major advances in both the surgical and interventional treatment of congenital heart disease, with about 85% of patients now surviving into adulthood. Congenital heart disease can be divided into simple and complex lesions. Simple lesions include atrial septal defect, ventricular septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, coarctation of the aorta, and left ventricular outflow tract lesions. Complex lesions include tetralogy of Fallot, complete transposition of great arteries, single ventricle/Fontan physiology, pulmonary atresia, and Ebstein’s anomaly of the tricuspid valve. This chapter reviews the clinical features and management of those congenital cardiac disorders seen in adolescents and adults.

Abstract:
Transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) is a standard echocardiographic technique which uses the oesophagus and upper stomach as echo windows on the heart and thoracic vessels via an endoscopic probe. It is indicated when transthoracic echocardiography is unable or unlikely to answer the clinical question. Typical indications where TOE has a proven superiority include diagnosis of left atrial thrombi, especially in the appendage, morphological evaluation of atrial septal defect, infective endocarditis, mitral valve disease, aortic and prosthetic valves, aortic diseases, and intraoperative monitoring of cardiac surgery or interventions. Indications, technique, typical views, and information to obtain in specific scenarios are presented.

Full text
Abstract:
Transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) is a semi-invasive procedure that harnesses the transoesophageal echo windows via a specialized probe to improve diagnostic accuracy if transthoracic imaging is not sufficient, or to allow echocardiographic examination and monitoring in circumstances where the transthoracic echo windows are not accessible, e.g., intra-operatively or during cardiac interventions. Main indications for TOE are the diagnosis of infective endocarditis, the identification of left atrial thrombi, in particular in the left atrial appendage before cardioversion, prosthetic valve dysfunction, aortic disease including dissection, intraoperative monitoring of valvular surgery, peri-interventional monitoring of interventions in structural heart disease, e.g. interventional mitral repair or transcatheter aortic valve implantation, and atrial septal defect closure. The chapter describes proper precautions and technique of TOE, standard views and recordings, as well as the most important imaging information and how to get it for the main TOE indications.

Abstract:
Intracardiac echocardiography is a relatively new echocardiographic technique, essentially used for monitoring of percutaneous atrial septal defect closure procedures and for electrophysiological catheter-based ablations. It is still limited to a few experienced centres, but presents with several advantages, including the safe guidance of percutaneous interventional treatments, avoidance of general anaesthesia, and reduction in radiation exposure. Intracardiac echocardiography is likely to be more and more used, with the development of new catheter interventional procedures. This chapter discusses the principles, methods, and main indications for intracardiac echocardiography in monitoring and guidance of interventional procedures as well as new developments and its cost-benefit ratio.

Abstract:
Transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE), a minimal-risk, semi-invasive imaging procedure is nowadays an indispensable part of routine echocardiography. It is mainly necessary and indicated: ◆ To analyse some structures insufficiently seen transthoracically, such as the left atrial appendage or the thoracic aorta. ◆ In situations that prohibit the use of conventional transthoracic windows, such as the patient undergoing cardiac surgery.As in transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), the TOE examination consists of a sequence of views defined by internal landmarks; unlike TTE, depending on the patient’s tolerance and the clinical question, not all of these have to be obtained in every examination. Important typical indications for TOE are the search for signs of endocarditis, the search for cardiogenic emboli, diagnosis of left atrial (appendage) thrombi before cardioversion, diagnosis of aortic dissection, characterization of mitral and aortic valve pathology especially in the context of surgical repair, intraoperative monitoring of left ventricular function, and monitoring of interventional cardiac procedures monitored.For some indications, intracardiac echocardiography has been found useful. This procedure involves insertion of a transducer-tipped catheter into the caval vein and advancement to the right heart, or intra-aortic placement. Applications are electrophysiological procedures, interventional closure of atrial septal defect, aortic stent placement, and others.

Abstract:
Current guidelines recommend extensive cardiovascular imaging in patients who experience ischaemic stroke or a transient ischaemic attack to prevent recurrent stroke. High-quality echocardiography is crucial for detection of the wide range of cardiac and proximal aortic conditions that can predispose to cerebral embolism. These conditions may be classified as major, minor, or uncertain risk sources of embolism. Although both transthoracic (TTE) and transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) have substantial clinical utility in patients with cryptogenic stroke, these methods offer complementary information. TOE is typically used for assessment of defects in the atrial septum or detection of thrombus in the left atrial appendage. In contrast, TTE is the recommended method for assessment of cardiac chamber structure and function, and valvular disease. Furthermore, assessment of aortic stiffness and electrocardiography may offer additional insight to cardiac function. This chapter gives an overview of the use of echocardiography in ischaemic stroke patients.
