Cardiology 6-13
Operating Procedures
1. Select [S-P Ellipse] in the measurement menu.
2. In apical long-axis view at end-diastole, measure the following parameters:
LVLd apical
LVAd apical
EDV value is then calculated.
3. In apical long-axis view at end-systole, measure the following parameters:
LVLs apical
LVAs apical
ESV value is then calculated.
The system calculates SV and EF;
If height and weight have been input already, SI, EDV Index and ESV Index are calculated.
4. Using touch screen knob to select HR source: ECG or input.
The CO and CI are calculated automatically.
