@alex1708ander RU/RL pulm veins drain into LA but with deoxygenated blood. So a shunt/fistula between RPA or SVC and Right pulmonary veins? Previous right pneumonectomy without ligating the pulm veins?
@The_Nanashi_O Did you get a chance to look at the images directly yourself? The acute symptoms, the hypoxia and the echo findings very much seem like a PE! Have you followed the pt up? Keen to know and thanks for sharing
@Alan_Couzens Do think it is the total volume per session (eg 2 hour z1 Vs 30 mins z2) or the total volume per week (eg 8 hours z1 Vs 2 hours z2) that makes the biggest difference?
Echo DD guidelines are consensus based and require testing to determine clinical utility. In this multicenter study with gold standard dx, we show poor sensitivity and accuracy for resting and exercise echo criteria. @JACCJournals
