What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Assessment of left ventricular function

    Will the assessment of left ventricular function by critical care physicians and echo techs be concordant?

    Time frame: within four hours of ICU admission

Secondary outcomes

  1. Presence of Pericardial Effusion and Severity

    Will the presence of pericardial effusion and severity from critical care physicians and echo techs be concordant?

    Time frame: within 4 hrs of ICU admission

Other outcomes

  1. Right ventricle dysfunction

    Will presence of RV dysfunction with critical care physicians versus echo techs/cardiologists be concordant in our population?

    Time frame: within 4 hrs of ICU admission
