[@alyssamccaw1532]

I have one on the 23rd I’m pretty nervous

[@reginamay2767]

Painless test.

[@CrystalShannon713]

Great video - I'm having one of these to support research soon

[@rikkistephenson7598]

I just had this today and I have a heart monitor as well have to wear it for a month I really hope they can see what the problem is

[@reginamay2767]

I had one 2 yrs ago is painless and does not hurt. I knew what it was before i had it. Is simple test. Gotta go for another echo test in a week. 👍

[@Karl-1974]

Just had a echocardiogram done today and im in anxiety waiting for results the only thing the dr who did the exam all he said was no presser and no emergenceys

[@Pluscelamemechose]

That's good news.

[@HotRoute7]

Did they inject something into your hand?

[@bambiiii4858]

Is there any needed preparation a day/night before the procedure in terms of what should we NOT eat or drink before the test? Thankyou doctor

[@MedicinewithDrMoran]

Thank you for commenting. No, there is no specific instructions in terms of eating or drinking before the test.

[@reginamay2767]

I had my echocardiogram 3rd test and looks to be the same I still have thickening of mitral valve and another valve in my heart is not opening and closing correct. They said was nothing to worry about but I am concerned.

[@_spoon_fed_chronicles_3289]

If the technician sees a concern that may need to be addressed immediately, what's the protocol?

[@lwood432]

You have to wait weeks until the doctor reviews it

[@2bold4you]

Cool to see the room and the Doc beforehand. The video is a little stiff tho. Doesn't look like anyone is responding to the comment section. Maybe turn it off, so people do not have false hopes? Of course this is not the platform for any clinical discussion. All in all: good try !

[@Volaris27]

when told i was going to have an echocardiagram nothing was mentioned about injecting an type of med,, I refuse to do that

[@HotRoute7]

I hear ya

[@jimbean7652]

Hi Dr. Moran, I just did a heart ultrasound and i have to go back to do a stress test, Since they want me to do a stress test does that mean they want me to have surgery????

[@sarahnoelwood9171]

Our hearts, proof for God's existence!

[@forbes1325]

Did an echo and an ecg 3 years ago how would I know if I need another

[@forbes1325]

Also having palpitations and also have anxiety and chest tightness and discomfort every night and also I feel my heart beat throughout my chest

[@MedicinewithDrMoran]

That is a question for your healthcare provider. I would discuss it with them.

[@forbes1325]

@@MedicinewithDrMoran Ok thank you very much😁

[@jassenedres6387]

Hi doc.. can I ask? Last june 24, 2020 did my 2d echo.. and the result is normal.. how long is the validity of the result? I mean when is my next 2d echo procedure done for monitoring only.

[@MedicinewithDrMoran]

Thank you for asking. We don’t routinely repeat echocardiograms in normals unless people have signs and symptoms to suggest a change in their cardiovascular status.

[@Pluscelamemechose]

@@MedicinewithDrMoran that's great. I've had a few heart tests, because of family issues, but I inherited my father's clean strong heart.

[@winstoncammock3684]

A friend of mine went for the echo-cardiogram on Friday and she was required to sign off on the hospital injecting a white substance in her hand which went to her heart as a way to give an accurate results ejection fraction of heart in order to do a complete echo-cardiogram. I did not see you mention that as as part of the echocardiogram that you do what is the difference???? Please explain if you can

[@user-ki5uz8hi9g]

Hey! I know it’s been a while since you posted so maybe you’ve already gotten the answer but I do echos and the white substance is a medication that’s just used as an “image enhancer”. Some patients won’t have the clearest images so that can be used to help us better visualize the heart. The substance creates microbubbles that basically reflect back brighter than the tissue of the heart so it’s easier to visualize the squeeze of the heart

[@Navyfiltered]

@@faecal_transplant_donor 🤫🤣🤣i wonder how much white stuff😶‍🌫

[@integra8502]

Would this test be considered the "reference" of Heart tests ??....My 83 yr old mom (has 2 stints)..went to hospital for short of breath...they did Not perform this test?...is that normal ?

[@michaelsanders9506]

45 minutes I just had the procedure done today 10 minutes 15 Max. Either they did a half-assed job or your just slow. Thanks for info

[@stevenlinda127]

Dear?

[@derrickparks9061]

Technologist not technician

[@MedicinewithDrMoran]

Derrick, sonographers worldwide use lots of terms to describe their job. Ultrasound Tech, Echo Tech, sonographer, cardiac sonographer, or just plain tech in addition. Some people like to be known as a technologist as opposed to a technician. It is a bit like the test itself. There are many terms for the test. I explain it to patients as a heart ultrasound but many of my colleagues only call it an echo, cardiac ultrasound, cardiac echo … when they talk to patients about it.

[@Baqsam]

The knowledge is much appreciated, but this is a ghetto production. Even the consent form has typos.
