Postoperative complete repair of tetralogy of Fallot
| Measure right ventricular size and assess function |
|---|
| Assess septal motion and right ventricular hypertrophy |
| Image and colour of right ventricular outflow tract, pulmonary artery and branches |
| Measure maximum velocity at any areas of aliasing |
| Assess pulmonary and tricuspid regurgitation from colour signals |
| Measure right ventricular pressure from tricuspid regurgitation velocity |
| Look for a residual ventricular septal defect |
| Measure aortic root size and look for aortic regurgitation |
| Remember in distal obstruction imaging poor and spectral velocity unreliable |
| • right ventricular pressure may give better indication of obstruction |
