A2 - Wong, Pierre C. Y1 - 2018 N1 - T2 - Practical Neonatal Echocardiography AB - Echocardiography is the predominant noninvasive method of assessing cardiac structure and function. Although initially this technique resided exclusively in the domain of the cardiologist, more recently it has been increasingly utilized for point-of-care applications across different specialties.1 The utility of point-of-care echocardiography has been demonstrated by neonatologists in the neonatal intensive care unit,2 anesthesiologists during the perioperative period,3 intensivists in the critical care setting,4 and emergency medicine physicians in the emergency care setting.5 The development of more advanced and portable systems has facilitated this change. However, the widespread use of point-of-care echocardiography, especially for neonatal intensive care, has been hampered by the lack of adequately trained non-cardiology specialists and access to patients.
