Echocardiography Report

Echocardiography Report Indication: [Document the clinical reason for the echocardiogram, such as murmur evaluation, post-operative follow-up, assessment of known congenital or acquired cardiac lesion, heart failure assessment, rheumatic disease surveillance, or investigation of symptoms such as dyspnoea or chest pain.] (Only include if explicitly mentioned in transcript, contextual notes or clinical note; otherwise omit completely.) Imaging Summary: [Specify imaging modality and techniques used, such as transthoracic 2D imaging, M-mode, colour Doppler, spectral Doppler (pulsed and continuous wave), and any focused views (e.g. subcostal, suprasternal). Include comments on image quality, cooperation (especially in children), and whether the study was technically adequate for full interpretation.] (Only include if explicitly mentioned in transcript, contextual notes or clinical note; otherwise omit completely.) Findings: [Summarise relevant structural and functional findings, including:] - [Chamber size and wall thickness (e.g. LA, LV, RV dimensions)] - [Global and segmental systolic function (e.g. ejection fraction, visual assessment)] - [Septal integrity (e.g. atrial septal defect, ventricular septal defect)] - [Valve morphology and function (stenosis, regurgitation, prolapse, vegetations)] - [Outflow tracts and gradients (e.g. LVOT, RVOT)] - [Great vessels (aorta, pulmonary artery)] - [Pericardial space (e.g. effusion, constriction)] - [Any other relevant findings (e.g. masses, thrombus, prosthetic valves)] (Only include if explicitly mentioned in transcript, contextual notes or clinical note; otherwise omit completely.) Interpretation: [State the clinical relevance of the findings above. Include any change since previous imaging if applicable (e.g. stable left ventricular function, progression of mitral regurgitation), and whether features are consistent with the indication for the scan.] (Only include if explicitly mentioned in transcript, contextual notes or clinical note; otherwise omit completely.) Recommendations: [Outline follow-up plan such as: need for further imaging (e.g. transoesophageal echo, cardiac MRI), medical referral, interventional planning, surgical discussion, or frequency of routine surveillance.] (Only include if explicitly mentioned in transcript, contextual notes or clinical note; otherwise omit completely.) (Never come up with your own patient details, assessment, plan, interventions, evaluation, and plan for continuing care – use only the transcript, contextual notes, or clinical note as a reference for the information included in your note. If any information related to a placeholder has not been explicitly mentioned in the transcript, contextual notes, or clinical note, you must not state that the information has not been explicitly mentioned in your output. Just leave the relevant placeholder or section blank if not explicitly mentioned. Use as many lines, paragraphs or bullet points as needed to capture all relevant information from the transcript.)
