Echo for heart failure follow-up
Most heart failure patients are elderly and become breathless with little effort. With a home echo, the cardiologist examines the patient in bed and can adjust diuretics and heart medicines during the same visit. Regular follow-up helps prevent attacks that require hospital admission.
Is a home echo safe?
Yes. Echocardiography uses sound waves, involves no radiation and is painless. It can be repeated as often as needed, for elderly patients, pregnant women and children alike.
