The Utility of Pocket-Sized Echocardiography to Assess Left Ventricular Systolic Function Prior to Permanent Pacemaker Implantation

Abstract: Background: A subset of patients receiving first-time permanent pacemakers (PPM) may also benefit from an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) based on the presence of left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD). Routine screening using pocket-sized echocardiography (PSE) may be useful in identifying such patients. Objective: To determine whether PSE can be used by an inexperienced sonographer to adequately screen for LVSD in a patient population receiving a first-time PPM. Methods: A sonographic trai… Show more

“…Changes in learner behaviour (Kirpatrick III) was evaluated in 50 studies out of 421 studies (12%). 3,6,7,9,10,61,67,68,114,121,124,125,[128][129][130]132,141,142, The majority of these studies measured learner behaviour by determining the amount of POCUS scans performed after the training period had finished (42, 84%), 3,7,10,67,68,114,121,124,[128][129][130]132,142,[162][163][164][165][166][167][169][170][171][172][173][174][175][176][177][178][179][180]…”
