Abstract
Echocardiography is used worldwide to evaluate cardiac size and function. To determine what values are abnormal, it is essential to establish normal reference values for echocardiography. The current guidelines for chamber quantification specify normative values for cardiac chambers and recommend that gender and body size be taken into account. However, these normative data were established using databases for which a variety of measurement methods were used and the majority of subjects consisted of Whites in Europe and the United States. However, several regional studies from other countries suggest that cardiac size varies globally. To overcome these limitations, the Normal Reference Ranges for Echocardiography study and the World Alliance of Societies of Echocardiography Normal Values study have recently been conducted to examine similarities and differences in cardiac chamber size and to establish normal reference values while taking worldwide diversity into account. The results from these studies have demonstrated that standardization of normal reference values for cardiac size is important. This review article aims to summarize the current status of normative echocardiographic values for cardiac chamber size.

J Equine Vet Sci 2020; 88:102929. [PMID: 32303309 DOI: 10.1016/j.jevs.2020.102929] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2019] [Revised: 12/19/2019] [Accepted: 01/07/2020] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
Donkey (Equus asinus), the cheapest form of agricultural power in Egypt, is used principally as draught or pack animals and may also be ridden, or used for threshing, raising water, milling, and other work. The aim of the present study was to provide B-mode and M-mode echocardiographic reference ranges from a sample of population of donkeys (E. asinus) based on the probability theory and statistics. In the present study, B-mode and 2-dimensional guided M-mode echocardiography were performed on 44 clinically healthy donkeys (E. asinus) (22 males and 22 females), without any neither clinical nor echocardiographic evidence of cardiovascular diseases, aged 2-25 year old, and weighed 150-350 kg. The echocardiographic dimensions, including interventricular septum thickness at end diastole, interventricular septum thickness at end systole, left ventricular internal diameter at end diastole, left ventricular internal diameter at end systole, left ventricular posterior wall thickness at end diastole, and left ventricular posterior wall thickness at end systole were assessed. The cardiac function indices, including end diastolic volume, end systolic volume, stroke volume, ejection fraction, and fractional shortening were also measured. B-mode and guided M-mode echocardiographic examination of healthy donkeys revealed that both the interventricular septum thickness and the left ventricular posterior free wall were greater during systole than diastole. However, the left ventricular dimension during diastole was greater than systole. Furthermore, the recorded data of cardiac function indices, including end diastolic volume, end systolic volume, stroke volume, ejection fraction, and fractional shortening using B-mode echocardiography were closer to those recorded by guided M-mode echocardiography. To our knowledge, this is the first Egyptian study to report the echocardiographic reference ranges of donkeys (E. asinus) based on the probability theory and statistics, the coefficient of variation. The results of the present study can be used as standard and reference values for further echocardiographic studies in donkeys and represent a step in the identification, interpretation, and evaluation of cardiovascular disorders in such animals.
