2023 ASE建议：儿童心脏床旁超声检查

Cardiac point-of-care ultrasound has the potential to improve patient care, but its application to children requires
consideration of anatomic and physiologic differences from adult populations, and corresponding technical
aspects of performance. This document is the product of an American Society of Echocardiography task
force composed of representatives from pediatric cardiology, pediatric critical care medicine, pediatric emergency
medicine, pediatric anesthesiology, and others, assembled to provide expert guidance. This diverse
group aimed to identify common considerations across disciplines to guide evolution of indications, and to
identify common requirements and infrastructure necessary for optimal performance, training, and quality
assurance in the practice of cardiac point-of-care ultrasound in children. The recommendations presented
are intended to facilitate collaboration among subspecialties and with pediatric echocardiography laboratories
by identifying key considerations regarding (1) indications, (2) imaging recommendations, (3) training and competency
assessment, and (4) quality assurance.
