Abstract

Objectives: Artifacts encountered during perioperative TEE may lead to misdiagnosis or underdiagnosis, which may ultimately result in wrong treatment and surgical referral. In our study, we aimed to investigate the incidence, type, and etiology of artifacts encountered during perioperative TEE imaging. Methods: TEE images that were acquired during cardiovascular surgeries are retrieved from the echocardiography machine archives and evaluated. The type and factors leading to artifacts in the images are recorded. Results: The images of 86 patients (male n:50 and female n:36) were evaluated. A total of 858 windows, of which 94 were stable and 764 were immobile, were evaluated. The artifacts were present in 159 (19%) of the images. The most prominent artifact was acoustic shadowing (p

Özet

Amaç: Perioperatif transözefageal ekokardiyografi sırasında ortaya çıkan artefaktlar, hatalı veya eksik tanıya, sonuçta da yanlış tedavi ya da cerrahi yönlendirmeye neden olabilir. Bu çalışmada, perioperatif transözefageal ekokardiyografi görüntülemesi sırasında ortaya çıkan artefaktların insidansının, cinsinin ve etiyolojilerinin araştırılması amaçlandı. Yöntem: Kalp cerrahi operasyonu uygulanan hastaların kaydedilmiş transözefageal ekokardiyografi kayıtları ekokardiyografi cihazının arşivinden tarandı. Görüntülerde oluşan artefaktın tipi ve artefakta neden olan faktörler kaydedildi. Bulgular: Çalışmada, 50’si erkek, 36’sı kadın toplam 86 hastanın görüntüleri tarandı. Doksan dördü sabit, 764’ü hareketli görüntü olmak üzere toplam 858 pencere izlendi. Artefakt içeren 159 (%19) görüntü vardı ve en sık gözlenen artefakt akustik gölgelenmeydi (p
