HR needed for CO and CI. You can enter the HR measurement on the patient form, or obtain it by measuring in M
Mode (page 4), Doppler (page 23), or ECG.
b
dP:dT
performed at 100 cm/s and 300 cm/s.
d
Specified on the cardiac patient report. See

Need to measure E (MV measurement) to get E/e' ratio.
To calculate EF
1 On a frozen 2D image or M Mode trace, press the CALCS key.
2 Select EF from the EF calculations menu.
See
"To select from the calculations menu"
3 Do the following for both LVDd and LVDs measurements.
a Select the measurement from the EF calculations list.
b Use the touchpad to position the calipers.
