Advanced Critical Care Ultrasound: E-Point Septal Separation to
2021年5月26日 · The E-Point Septal Separation (EPSS) is an easy measurement to obtain that is accurate in estimating the LVEF. EPSS is measured in the parasternal long axis view (PLAX) of the heart, which gives a view of the left ventricle and is often used to assess its function.
Assessing Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction With ... - POCUS 101
The Parasternal Long Axis View (PSLA) is used to assess LVEF using fractional shortening and E-point septal separation (EPSS). In this view, the LV is positioned below the right ventricle. The parasternal short-axis view (PSSA) gives a cross-section of the heart.
Cardiac Ultrasound (Echocardiography) Made Easy: Step-By …
The Parasternal Long Axis View is often abbreviated as PSLA or PLAX. It is usually the first cardiac ultrasound view obtained and will give you an immediate assessment of the general condition of the heart including ejection fraction and overall left and right ventricular sizes.

2020年3月31日 · Learn how to measure the EPSS (aka E-point Septal Separation) from the PLAX view using M-mode! Did you forget how to get the PLAX view? Check out this video:...
Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction Estimation - POCUS.org
Figure showing the M-mode tracing in the PLAX view and the EPSS measurement. Physical exam is remarkable for JVD, rales / crackles in lung bases, 1+ pitting edema up to the lower leg (bilateral). A POCUS cardiac exam was performed. An E-Point Septal Separation (EPSS) measurement was obtained.
US Probe: E-Point Septal Separation (EPSS) in the CHF Patient
2018年2月14日 · EPSS can be measured by direct ultrasound visualization of the heart in parasternal long axis (PLAX). Using M-mode, the marker is placed over the most distal tip of the anterior mitral leaflet. The M-mode image created using this point over time can be visualized as a cloudy sky over two hills (see Figure 1).
Reduced Systolic Function (EPSS) – POCUS - teachIM
Identify systolic dysfunction in the PLAX view and use end-point septal separation (EPSS) to characterize the severity. List the common valvular conditions and measuring errors that lead to overestimation of an EPSS.
Cardiac Point-of-Care Ultrasound (P.O.C.U.S.) Utilization for ...
2023年6月29日 · There are five main views in the bedside cardiac P.O.C.U.S. exam; Parasternal long axis (PLAX) view, parasternal short axis (PSAX) view, apical four chamber (A4C) view, subcostal cardiac view, and subcostal inferior vena cava (IVC) view. The PLAX view (Image 1A) is best obtained with the patient's left arm raised above their head, if possible ...
Focused Cardiac Ultrasound for the Nephrologist: Utility of the …
2020年2月7日 · To obtain accurate EPSS, we need to obtain a good 2D PLAX view first. Off-axis (tilted) 2D image is probably the most common source of error. In addition, valvular pathologies such as mitral stenosis (limited motion of leaflets), aortic regurgitation (regurgitant jet impairs MV movement) may lead to falsely elevated EPSS.
Parasternal Long Axis (PLAX or PSLA) | POCUS - teachIM
Identify the correct cardiac chambers and valves visualized by the standard Parasternal Long Axis (PLAX or PSLA) view. Demonstrate proper image interpretation of basic cardiac function, relative cardiac chamber size and pericardial space using brief clinical cases.
