Quick heart ultrasound test in the ICU
This trial tests a new way to measure how much blood your heart pumps using a simple ultrasound from under your ribs. It may help doctors monitor your condition without more invasive tests.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You are currently in the intensive care unit at Rouen University Hospital.
- Your doctor has ordered a heart ultrasound (echocardiogram) as part of your care.

This trial tests if a heart imaging scan (myocardial perfusion) can help doctors better diagnose heart attacks or other conditions in people who come to the hospital with chest pain but without ST elevation on their ECG. It aims to see if the scan adds valuable information before heart catheterization.
This study tests a new way to measure heart pressure using an ultrasound, which may help doctors decide how to treat patients in intensive care. If successful, it could be used more widely in the future.
This study looks at how the heart is affected in critically ill patients who need a breathing machine. It uses ultrasound and other simple tests to check for heart problems that can happen in the ICU, which may help doctors find and treat them earlier.
This study uses focused heart ultrasound to help doctors make better treatment decisions for critically ill children in the ICU. It may help improve care by giving real-time information about the heart's function.
This trial tests whether a simple ultrasound measurement of blood flow in your heart, guided by artificial intelligence, can be reliably done by minimally trained staff. It aims to help doctors decide when to give fluids to ICU patients who need them.
This study tests a new non-invasive device called UltraTrac that measures how well the heart pumps blood in people with congenital heart disease. It will be used during standard heart procedures or intensive care stays to see if it works as well as current methods.
