A teaching intervention increases the performance of handheld ultrasound devices for assessment of left ventricular ejection fraction

Background: Few studies have demonstrated the utility of a teaching program for evaluation of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of echocardiographic images acquired with high-end machines. No study to date explored the value of similar programs when a handheld ultrasound device is used. The...
