Altough the area or volume seems small (hipovolemia likely?) If you look carefully the EDVarea and ESVarea are very different. I mean, a higher LVEDarea and very very small LVESarea, a finding indicative of very low LV afterload!!! /> Best Pablo
A about 50 y old patient was admitted to our ICU from another hospital with severe septic shock. It was known a HIV-infection for over 15 y. In TEE we had no indication of endocarditic vegetation, but we could see a hyperdynamic RV and LV with a midventrcular gradient of the LV (> 2 m/sec).
